Anyone got an old pics of Ray's Riverside from when Ray owned it? I don't want any Bilo stuff either.

Banksy is a valued friend of all of us on this board. He asked a serious question - made a serious request - and deserves better. :fogey:



Therefore, I am submitting exactly what he requested:


My old photos of Ray's Riverside:

Ray's Riverside a few years later, after it moved away from the hill and on the other side of the railroad tracks to its current location

Unfortunately I guess you can't get a a decent response around here. I'm surprised BB you didn't remind us that you used to be a Tyrone cop too.

OK, SERIOUSLY - I don't beieve I have any old pics of Ray's as a Riverside. I may have an old pic from about 1988 (when we moved back from California) taken in the parking lot, don't think the store itself shows in it, but don't remember when his store went from being a Riverside to a BiLo?

Somewhere in my old, packed-away pics I may still have some pics taken in the late 70's or early 80's at Ray's house - in the game room - from a get-together when his daughter got married. I was a Tyrone cop at the time (had to include that, so you wouldn't be completely disappointed :jester: ).

Some possible sources who MAY have a photo: Virgie Werner, or Steve Michaels (if he's still around). They took a lot of photos back then for media and other uses...

Steve unfortunately passed away, but that got me to a thinkin. It may be a small town, but there still aren't that many people that are known by EVERYONE in a town. I think everyone knew Steve.
