E. J. Riley Ltd.
An authoritative history of the E. J. Riley Ltd. business was written by the grandson of one of the founders of the business, which was published in the book - Billiards & Snooker a Trade History complied by Mr. J. R. Mitchell (the retired Managing Director of Thurston) and published by the British Sports & Allied Industries Federation (now called the Federation of Sports and Play Association, who kindly gave their permission to use the article.).
The article was written by the then Chairman of E.J. Riley Mr C. G. Kenyon, and so for the early history it is that article that has been used, which charted the early days up to the early 1980's. Photographs of tables and catalogues have been added which have been taken from the Norman Clare Heritage Collection. Sadly as the later history of the business relates the optimism shown at the end of Mr. Kenyon's article was not to be and the actual business finally collapse in late 2002, although the name lives on within other businesses that acquired use of the name.
