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.

Title A name given to the resource Dance Invitation, Les Fieres Coeurs Description An account of the resource Box 1 Folder 59: "All right moving on to box 1 folder 59 from 1949. A lovely little folder, very creatively done by ‘Les Fieres Coeurs’. They were a female…they were a women’s organization, and they were announcing a dance that they were going to hold in Birmingham. The ladies would be formal the men would be dark suits, and they had a listing of the club roster in here for people who wanted to do any kind of research. The club colors were red and gold as this brochure is also printed red on gold. The club motto “In the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed”, and that’s it. It’s a lovely little thing and it’s an invitation to a dance. The group is from Birmingham. Found at Ben Franklin’s home." 1940s Birmingham Dance Les Fieres Couers Social Clubs
