Advert for Riley Sports Equipment

E.J. Riley had two failed sports shops before he decided to manufacture sports equipment. At one time Rileys were the biggest manufacturer of cricket bats in the world. They made golf equipment and bowling balls but are best known for their billiard and snooker tables. They also ran billiards halls.
