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. Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading. Examples include books, letters, dissertations, poems, newspapers, articles, archives of mailing lists. Note that facsimiles or images of texts are still of the genre Text. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Clippings, Radio Logs Description An account of the resource Box 3 Folder 3: "Okay we’re going to folder number 3. Folder number 3 from October of ‘54. Again Birmingham News radio logs from September 30th thru October 3rd of 1954. WEDR has the Walter Anglin show, and now they’ve changed the frequency correctly to 1220. The Walter Anglin show on. Junior Daniels on WEDR; that was probably Wiley Daniels Walter Anglin on again. Wiley Daniels on, so maybe that was his son. The Mary Francis show. This is where I contend is the timeslot that Shelley Stewart took over eventually, but he is not on the air as of October of 1954. Going over to WJLD 1400: the King Porter Show - King has switched to WJLD from WBCO this year, Willie McKinstry on, Truman Puckett on. It’s still a mix of black and country. Mel Allen doing football play by play. The Atomic Boogie Hour on, we’re not sure who was doing it at this time at WJLD. Game of the week, that’s Ohio State vs. California with Mel Allen. Mel Allen was the voice of the New York Yankees for many many years; I grew up with him. 1450 WBCO, this is again October 1st, still looks like a lot of swing, a lot of rock and roll, rhythm and blues, Erskine Fausch still on the air. And that’s what we see. No major change. I have three successive days here, but I don’t see... there’s still the same people on on EDR. The Ensley Jubilee singers are on EDR; William Pope is on EDR. This is already a Sunday; it’s pretty clear. WJ Allen. JLD Willing Workers, Listen to Labor with Willie McKinstry. That must have been an interesting show and Roberta Roland still on on JLD. BCO has various churches, the Harmonettes are singing and so forth. This looks like it was a Sunday, Sunday, Sunday. Cause Reveille with Eddie Castleberry is not on. (vocalizes) I can only imagine he had a morning show and played Reveille." 1950s Birmingham News King Porter Radio Logs Walter Anglin WAPI WBCO WBRC WCRT WEDR WEZB WJLD
