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. Physical Object An inanimate, three-dimensional object or substance. Note that digital representations of, or surrogates for, these objects should use Moving Image, Still Image, Text or one of the other types.

Title A name given to the resource Bumper Stickers and Futra Mart Promotion, WJLD Description An account of the resource Box 8 Folder 61: "We are now up to folder 61. Number 61 from 1989 contains a couple of bumper stickers from 1989. The backs are the sponsors that paid for the bumper stickers. Also, a picture of Darleen, I can’t remember Darleen’s last name, who was our receptionist at WJLD, and also two pictures of one of our Futra Mart supermarket promotions… you had 14 seconds or 14 minutes (had to be 14 seconds..head for the meat counter) or whatever it was, to put stuff in your supermarket wagon. If you win the contest on the radio, you had to fly around this Futra Mart on Third Avenue West, which no longer exists, maybe that’s one of the reasons, but they were a supermarket right around Elyton Village, very nice people, and they participated with us in the promotion. I don’t know the name of the woman who won the promotion. There may be two, first and second prize, but pictured in here are myself in a red jacket, Budweiser Showdown jacket which I got after I ran the Showdown, Keith Reed who was the program director for the station, and WJLD owner Gary Richardson on the far left. And if you look at one of the pictures where the woman is flinging stuff into the cart, you can see my jacket behind her, I’ve got a stop watch. The early days, for me anyway." 1980s Darlene Douglas Futra Mart Promotion WJLD
