Relics

The words “once upon a time” start many children’s books, offering vivid tales of a time long since past, but kept alive in story and myth.

That is the same for the relics in this section. They hearken back to another time in Queens, a time kept alive through tales of parents, grandparents and more; they sit as reminders of things that happened, once upon a time.
