Car Showroom

Does anyone have any info or pics of the old car showroom in Poplar Rd Kings Heath?
I was talking to the owners daughter who has lost all her pics and memorabellia due to a burglary and the fact that it has been vandalised and is now uninhabitable.
 
bilsat, I guess you mean Kingsway Garage, the only photos I have seen are of the other side of the road to the garage.

Sad to hear that. A burglary is most upsetting. If it happened recently perhaps an appeal in a local paper or radio station for the return of the photos may bring a result. Stranger things have happened. Some body local may also have taken photos of the garage. Local papers may have a photo or two in there archive. I hope you find some..arkrite.

ps Had a look on Google Earth..the place certainly looks a mess....a reminder of the times when you could buy a car in the shopping area rather than traipse out to some god forsaken trading estate to a glass palace selling cars by the hundred.
