                <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 8 Folder 49: "I’m now at folder 49 which is a 3 x 5 black and white of Tall Paul, Paul Dudley White. Also, an 8x10 we made from the 3 x 5. This would have been made in 1987. That same picture appeared in the Birmingham Times around that time announcing just that Paul was with the station.  Original received from Jesse Lewis at the Birmingham Times around 1992.  A note on the "Dudley."  Either this middle name was adopted by Paul or the WENN radio staff, but nowhere in his early life's records does the middle name Dudley or the initial "D" appear."</text>
