                <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 25: "This is folder 25 which contains a black and white 8x10 and a color 4x6 of Paul Dudley White, otherwise known as Tall Paul, in his baseball uniform. He was Captain and a player with the "WJLD Microphones."  He was NOT born with Dudley.  Some say since that was the name of a famous doctor, it was given to him as a nick name. Donated from photographer Lucious Washington.  &#13;
&#13;
Also in Folder 25 is a picture of the WJLD Microphones, an original and a blow up, two 8x10. We can identify Mr. Bimbo. I can’t remember his first name. He was a plumber in town and he is on the far left, standing, and Tall Paul, Paul White is standing right in the middle on the rear row.  Third from the right on the bottom row is now County Commissioner Sheila Tyson. We don’t know who anybody else is. If people view these we hope that they will be able to identify who these folks are.  Donated by McNair Studios."</text>
