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 WBCO Advertising Flyer, "If You Want My Business" Description An account of the resource Box 3 Folder 19: "Here we have folder 19, a copy, two copies of a flyer. It was a blue flyer so I copied it on blue cardstock. It was a pitch for Ed McClure trying to get advertisers to WBCO, where he was a DJ and ran platter parties. Looks like he also worked at a mill. He’s got his lunch box. I love that lunch box. I had one of those too…. He also put a thermos in there. It had a little clasp on top. Thermoses are great, they’re still great…. Donated from McClure’s collection" 1950s Advertising Ed "Johnny Jive" McClure WBCO
