    Description
    HANDSIGNED 8" x 10" COLOR PUBLICITY PHOTOGRAPH BY JOEY RILEY (1969-2013).
    Joey was born and raised in Wylie, Texas and got his start in his parents’ music venue, the Wylie Opry, which they built so he and his brother, Scott, could have a family-friendly environment in which to perform. Joey was successful from a young age. Before he was 17, he toured with Capitol Records artist Gene Stroman and Suzy Bogguss playing the steel guitar and fiddle. He then toured with the Warren Stokes Country Revue out of Eureka Springs, Arkansas and added “comedian” to his talents. After a couple years, he found his way to Branson where he joined the Texas Goldminors. Country music legend Mickey Gilley happened to be in the audience one day and asked him to join his show. Riley stayed by Gilley’s side for over 20 years. In 2012, Joey ended his tenure with Gilley and joined up with longtime friend and fellow Wylie native Clay Cooper. He performed nightly as part of “Clay Cooper’s Country Music Express” and in his own show at Music City Centre on Branson’s famed Highway 76 strip.
    PHOTO HAS SOME CRINKLES AND A STAPLE HOLE AT UPPER RIGHT BORDER. HE HAS INSCRIBED "TO DEBBIE & DAVID". ALSO INCLUDED IS A FAKE 0.00 BILL FEATURING JOEYS FACE (SEE SCAN).

    PLEASE SEE MY SCAN OF MY CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. BOTTOM PORTION OF THE CERTIFICATE WILL BE COMPLETED WHEN ITEM IS SOLD.
    WE ARE OFFERING AUTOGRAPHS OBTAINED OVER A 53 YEAR PERIOD. BEGINNING IN THE 1960'S, UPON MOVING TO CALIFORNIA MY PARENTS & I BEGAN VISITING THE HOLLYWOOD AREA ATTENDING A LOT OF HIGH PROFILE EVENTS SEEKING PHOTOS AND AUTOGRAPHS OF MOVIE, TV, AND MUSIC CELEBRITIES. WE ATTENDED THE ACADEMY AWARDS, EMMY AWARDS AND MOVIE PREMIERES. ALSO EVENTS SUCH AS THE "THALIANS BALL", THE "SHARE BOOMTOWN PARTY", AS WELL AS MANY CELEBRITY GOLF & TENNIS TOURNAMENTS IN THE LOS ANGELES AND PALM SPRINGS AREAS. WE ALSO ATTENDED THE TAPINGS OF MANY T.V. SHOWS OF THE TIME SUCH AS
    THE HOLLYWOOD PALACE, HULLABALOO, HOLLYWOOD SQUARES, THE RED SKELTON SHOW, THE ANDY WILLIAMS SHOW
    & MORE WHERE MOST CELEBRITIES WERE AVAILABLE FOR AUTOGRAPHS BEFORE AND AFTER TAPINGS. IT WAS A TIME WHEN ACCESS TO THE STARS WAS EASY. BASICALLY THERE WAS NO SECURITY AT THE EMMY AWARDS AND VERY LITTLE AT THE ACADEMY AWARDS & MOVIE PREMIERES.
    IN THE 1980'S WE OPENED A RECORD STORE WHICH GAVE ME ACCESS TO MANY RECORD SIGNING EVENTS AT MY DISTRIBUTORS' LOCATIONS AND SOME EVENTS SPONSORED BY DISTRIBUTORS. WE ATTENDED HUNDREDS OF CONCERTS AND WERE ABLE TO MAKE OUR WAY BACKSTAGE AT MANY OF THEM WITH RECORD & CD COVERS IN HAND TO BE SIGNED.
    ABOUT THIS TIME WE ALSO BEGAN TO ATTEND MANY CELEBRITY SHOWS AND AMASSED A GREAT COLLECTION OF SIGNED PHOTOS FROM MANY CELEBRITIES OF A BY-GONE AREA, MANY WHO HAVE SINCE PASSED ON.
    WE ALSO HAVE HAD THE PRIVILEGE OF BUYING COLLECTIONS OF AUTOGRAPHS FROM INDIVIDUALS WHO EITHER WORKED IN THE ENTERTAINMENT BUSINESS (SOME AS EARLY AS THE 1920'S) AND OTHERS WHO HAD A BUSINESS IN THE HOLLYWOOD AREA WHICH WAS FREQUENTED BY CELEBRITIES. SOME OF THESE FOLKS KEPT THEIR AUTOGRAPH BOOKS AT THE FRONT COUNTER AND WERE READY TO ASK FOR A SIGNATURE WHEN A CELEBRITY CAME INTO THEIR SHOP.
    THANKS FOR LOOKING. WE WILL LISTING MORE AUTOGRAPHS FROM MY COLLECTION IN THE NEAR FUTURE.
