Tan-sad Perambulators

Born a Brummie
In doing some family history I found a Great Uncle went to America as a rep for
Tan-Sad perambulators in 1924. Can anyone tell me please where this factory was?

An interesting point to add is that a pram used by my Mother for us 3 children (from 1937, 1940 & 1951) was a Tan-Sad so maybe Great Uncle got it for them ???

Many thanks :))

my wife was born in Hull and her mother calls a push chair a tan sad to this day ( she is 93 ) After our first daughter was born in 1972 we visited hull regulary and our sparkling brand new buggie was refferd to as a tan sad by the locals.
