Title A name given to the resource Ephemera Collection Description An account of the resource In 2009, BBRM staff and volunteers began the archiving of this collection, with the arranging of objects chronologically (1935 – 1995) and the purchasing of proper archival storage materials. In 2011, an oral finding aid with provenance was constructed by conversations between University of Alabama School of Library and Information Studies (UA SLIS) volunteer Lindsey Reynolds (now at University of Georgia, Athens Library) and BBRM Director Bob Friedman. In 2013 and 2014, those interviews were transcribed by UA SLIS volunteer Michael Mitchell (known affectionately as the MMT). For each object, the original finding aid conversation has been added and can be found in quotes in the description section. As of the most recent online uploading in August, 2019, the Ephemera Collection consisted of eight boxes containing 413 folders with approximately 850 files, spanning the period 1935-1989.

Title A name given to the resource Roy Wood Sr. Description An account of the resource Box 2 Folder 13: "Moving to folder 13 is a picture from 1950 of Roy Wood Sr. who, this was from July 1950 we approximate, which may have been from his confirmation. Donated by Roy to me. That would have placed him down here. No that would have placed him probably in Indiana perhaps, where he started. He came down to work for 11 months at WJLD 1400 - taking Bob Umbach's place as DJ for the "Atomic Boogie Hour" after Bob left for WMBM Miami in 1953 - but we wanted a picture of him in his youth. Of course Roy began his career in 1946 and was a founder of the National Black Network, had a very brief stint here, went back up to WVON in Chicago and then eventually came back down and worked at the A.G. Gaston stations WAGG and WENN. He was a newscaster with a fabulous voice and a wonderful man, somebody who was educated at Columbia University in the School of Journalism." 1950s Atomic Boogie Hour Bob Umbach National Black Network Roy Wood WAGG WENN WJLD WVON
