Hi ,
I am in the process off clearing the loft out and hopefully will find the Essex works magazine(s) which may contain a picture of Harry. I remember that he lived not far from me in Walsall Road, Four Oaks and do recollect him having a Rover 2000.

Thanks for that Malcolm. I lost touch with him many years ago and of course he is long since dead, as is his wife and daughter. Any help would be appreciated. I lost touch with my other brother only to find he recently died in France, and am aware I have a duty to the family of keeping our tree as up to date as possible.
 
I was intrigued as to what products a company called Drynamels would manufacture (couldn't imagine a dry enamel) as mentioned in this thread. I now know thanks to last post.

Drynamels Ltd Shaftmoor Lane Birmingham 1950s

Came across this video It is not just the factory, but presumably area around also. Cannot identify it. Below is shot of entrance, but can't make out firm's name
