                <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 2 Folder 32: "Folder 32 has a picture of King Porter during his time on the air at WJLD. He's displaying "Welcome Home" by T-Bone Walker, which was issued in September 1951. King Porter was a jazz and blues piano player and we have numerous pictures of him, some later than this one.  Although these were given to us by Jim Connolly's niece, Candy West (may have been his grand daughter), which would have suggested a WJLD source. it is also true that Porter had a stunt at WBCO Bessemer and shows up on their promotional flyer in 1952."</text>
