Smith & Wall

Eton Sun

proper brummie kid
The firm of Smith and Wall manufactured fishing tackle, mainly reels, from about 1884 upto 1960. They were based at 27b Whitehead Road Aston, and the company was started by Messrs Humpfrey Wall and Albert Smith. Does anyone know any history of the company or have any catalogues or anyone who worked there.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.
 
I now know that Humphrey Wall came from Leamington born 1851, and it was Alfred not Albert Smith and he was born in warwickshire c1881
