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 Bob Umbach, WMBM Description An account of the resource Box 2 Folder 48: "This is folder 48. This is a promo picture of Bob Umbach which was sent to me I believe by his daughter but I’m not sure. This is when he was at WMBM, this is not at WJLD. This would have been around ‘53 and here he is pouring some milk into, I don’t know what. He’s got a table full of 78s in front of him. Bob Umbach had the Atomic Boogie Hour for 7 years at WJLD. He was a very popular jock, Caucasian, who spent a lot of time in the black community, a lot of time at the Madison Night Spot. Eventually passed away in the mountains of North Carolina, in Asheville, so I’m told. Striking man who we had once been told that Jane Russell had a crush on him and came to visit him. We heard that from a couple of people. I won’t name them cause I’m not sure. You’ll have to contact Jane Russell’s evangelical church to find out. By many of his contemporaries and those that came afterwards, considered the first "race" jock in Birmingham." Atomic Boogie Hour Bob Umbach Madison Night Spot WJLD WMBM
