Sidney Fox was a Utah radio and television pioneer who bought the small radio station KDYL and turned it into one of the most popular stations in Utah. In 1948 he became one of the nation's first private owners of a television station with the licensing of KDYL-TV now KTVX. The collection consists mainly of personal photos of family and friends. The last portion of the collection is devoted to the employees, operations and programming of KDYL.
