There are also slides and a small number of photographs documenting protests against the Vietnam War, the 1968 Chicago Democratic National Convention, and nuclear armaments, as well as musical performances including the Newport Jazz and Folk Festivals.

Subseries VI.2: WBAI, 1963-circa 2010s

Subseries VI.2 contains material related to the radio station WBAI and Bob Fass's association with it from the 1960s through the 2000s, primarily as host of Radio Unnameable. Program logs for episodes of Radio Unnameable are sparse; those that do exist date primarily from 1986 through 1992 and 1995 through 1996. Fass was also a party to periodic station programming and management disputes, the most significant of which—described by Fass as the "WBAI Crisis"—occurred in 1977, and culminated in Fass's on-air arrest and ban from the station for five years. Material from these incidents is included in the subseries as well. One small folder in this subseries contains materials from WFMU in New Jersey, from which Fass broadcast his radio show until his ban from WBAI expired in 1982. There are also photographs of guests and musical performances in the studio at WBAI, as well as several boxes of letters sent to Bob Fass by Radio Unnameable listeners from the 1960s through the 2010s. Finally, there are a few folders of material from early efforts to digitize selected audiotapes from the collection before its sale to the Rare Book and Manuscript Library.
