                <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 7 Folder 7: "Here we are at folder 7, which is a headshot of Maurice King, otherwise known as the Thin Man, very famous jock who was at WOKS in Columbus, Georgia; WYOK in Little Rock, Arkansas; WTUG in Tuscaloosa; and at WENN in 1963 during the civil rights demonstration days through the announcer walk-out of 1976. Maurice King traveled to the new WATV with the 1976 "Walk-Out" jocks. The picture is probably from his stint at ATV. Maurice's eyes are really bloodshot. They seem to be. I don’t know. I can’t…. I wish I could have interviewed him but I didn’t. One of the guys I didn’t get an interview with.  I did interview his wife, and that interview will eventually be in the Oral History collection. This picture donated from McNair Studios."</text>
