A big birthday card for Ray

Ahead of Ray's 90th birthday next month, EV-based artist Lola Sáenz created a card for the longtime proprietor of Ray's Candy Store. 

She also collected some signatures from his many fans... there's a little room left on the card, which is now up at the shop, 113 Avenue A (at Seventh Street)...
Meanwhile, Ray's crowdfunding campaign (first reported here) has passed the $51,000 mark!

  2. Can anyone give a heads up when Rays actual birthday/celebration will be? It would be much appreciated and I’d make the trip into the city that day if possible
