E.J.Riley signature cues.

[GR1]

Help/ info please...we're E.J.Riley signature cues I.e. the snakewood and sometimes ebony cues made as commemorative pieces after the death of E.J.Riley in 1925 or were they manufactured earlier than that year...many thanks.

I have a couple of Riley catalogues from the period. The cue is listed in the 1928 catalogue but not the one from 1921, so its appearance does seem to coincide with E.J’s death.

Many thanks 100 -uper. I've got a few signature snakewoods..one of which has a small weight stamp only on the shaft, with a 3 and a k stamped on the base of the butt which is an earlyish one..l think the others are at least mid 30s onwards judging by the marks
