WORLD EXCLUSIVE

NEW JIM REEVES EXHIBIT
AT THE TEXAS COUNTRY MUSIC
HALL OF FAME
IN CARTHAGE, TEX.

 

Here the Newberrys pose with a lifelike manequin of Jim Reeves, on loan from Gaylord in Nashville, in the new radio room, which displays the KGRI equipment Jim used when he got his start in Henderson, Texas in the 1940s. The manequin has been recently outfitted with one of Reeves' Nudie suits, courtesy of Newberry.

 

Former business partner and longtime Reeves friend Tom Perryman interviews James for his radio show, using the same KGRI microphone that Jim used when he got his start in radio.
