                <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 55: "Now at folder 53 which is a social gathering. This was taken out of Morrow’s files, Morrow the photographer. And I thought maybe there was somebody special in this picture. There’s a bunch of folks who are drinking a lot. They’re at a party, a house party. Somebody’s house. We have no idea who we’re looking at here. Nobody is particularly recognizable. This may have absolutely nothing to do with radio but it certainly has to do with having a good time back in 1952, ‘53. Why you would hire Morrow  - or whoever’s party that was -  to hire a professional photographer to take that picture unless it was one of the parties Morrow got invited to as a guy and happened to have his camera. Say “Hey fellows, smile.”"</text>
