WSFA Collection

Description:
In the fall of 2019, WSFA donated its collection of historical news footage to the Alabama Department of Archives and History.

The content documents almost every aspect of life in Alabama, providing a remarkable visual record of our state in the second half of the 20th century. The footage is especially rich in regard to state government and politics, but other topics such as sports, business, and society are also well represented.
