                <text>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.</text>

              <text>Box 2 Folder 44: "We’re up to folder 44 which is an original picture and a copy of a sports broadcaster for WEDR, and the picture depicts him at the WEDR mic reading copy. I believe this was given to us by his brother, Mose…. The person depicted at the WEDR mic is Edward Chambers and this was brought in by his brother, now deceased, Mose Chamber. Mose was a lovely man and used to be a regular caller to WJLD during morning talk shows. I used to think that WEDR might have broadcasted Black Baron games but I now don't believe so.  We do have another picture of Edward interviewing football players, possibly high school or college."</text>
