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. Physical Object An inanimate, three-dimensional object or substance.

Title A name given to the resource Pocket Protector, Joe Rumore and Golden Eagle Table Syrup Description An account of the resource Box 3 Folder 10: "A pocket protector advertising Joe Rumore and Golden Eagle Table Syrup. Stations partnered with sponsors and gave out what are now called advertising specialties. This was part of a collection Candy West donated to the BBRM in 2015. Her grandfather was Jim Connolly, manager at WJLD in the 40's and 50's. When Joe Rumore's estate was bought, many such items were on display at an antique store in Hoover. I only bought one item - a radio rating book from late 1962 that showed activity at WJLD and WENN. It will be displayed in later boxes. Joe was at WJLD in 1942 and quickly moved to WAPI and then WVOK for many years." 1950s Advertising Specialties Golden Eagle Table Syrup Joe Rumore
