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.

Title A name given to the resource WBUL | WAYE Sign-on and Sign-off Description An account of the resource Box 6 Folder 23: "This is folder 23 and it’s a WBUL sign on and of course they… its interesting because when WAYE was created they simply just changed the language from BUL to AYE and it just announces… it’s a good morning announcement. It’s a sign on. And it also indicates that WAYE is owned and operated by Good News Broadcast Company with broadcasting facilities and offices located at 4650 Avenue W, Suite K, 5 Points West shopping center with a transmitter site located 1450, 14th Street Southwest in Birmingham, AL, and as I recall, the transmitter site is still there and what is the transmitter site for WEDR as well. What’s crossed out is who owned BUL radio, which did read “WBUL is owned and operated by Radio Broadcasting Company of Birmingham Incorporated,” and somewhere along the way we have mentioned some of the people we know were associated with that operation, which I think was a family operation, local family operation. So, this again from November ‘72. These were found by Bob Friedman inside the station when 1220 was still in a building out at 5 Points West on 3rd Avenue West on Bessemer Super Highway." 1970s Birmingham Good News Broadcast Company WAYE WBUL
