                <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 7 Folder 1: "This is box 7, folder 1 which is a picture of WJLD disc jockeys James Freeman and Larry Levan and probably at some kind of a remote. It took place around 1973, or 1975 I should say, and I got this picture from Willie McKinstry’s wife, Willie… in 1992 at the beginning of this BBRM project.  Visited her at her home on Spaulding Rd.  I borrowed it from her and I made a copy of it.  Rev. Willie McKinstry was, I think, at this time assistant station manager."</text>
