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. Still Image A static visual representation. Examples include paintings, drawings, graphic designs, plans and maps. Recommended best practice is to assign the type Text to images of textual materials.

Title A name given to the resource Eddie Castleberry at WMBM Description An account of the resource Box 3 Folder 37: "We’re now up to folder 37 which is a picture of Eddie Castleberry back in 1956 at WMBM in Miami with his 45s. He's left Birmingham and he's not coming back. When I talked to Eddie, he mentioned that he liked to play the Clovers, and it’s obvious that what he’s got in his hand, and what he has on the transcription player, are two Atlantic 45s. They are light color which leaves me to believe they are yellow label 45s, which also leads me to believe that this picture would not be any later than 1955-1956. (Devil or Angel by the Clovers was on yellow Atlantic from January of '56.) Eddie Castleberry’s history is located in the archives of the Birmingham Black Radio Museum with where he was and when he was wherever he was. We interviewed him twice, once in the early 1990's when he visited WJLD and later in the 90's by phone when he was living in New York City. But we do know that this picture was from WMBM, Miami in Florida. Roy Wood suggests this was a Johnston (the second and long time owner of WJLD and other Birmingham properties) owned property, which could be the case since Bob Umbach ended up there too. Castleberry's archival materials are held at Indiana University at Bloomington. Also in this folder are documents sent by Eddie Castleberry to Bob Friedman around the time of his visit to Birmingham in 1992. These documents, including a personal letter to Bob Friedman, give witness not only to his early history at WEDR and WJLD, but his extensive career at other stations and radio networks." 1950s Eddie Castleberry Mutual Black Network National Black Network The Clovers WEDR WJLD WMBM
