Just to complete the roll we have these last few The first is in Peel Street Winson Green taken in 1955, again a simple Outdoor, plenty of leaded glass an etched front door and it looks like a brass door latch, large lamp bracket and painted wall ( old sign? ) and to the side an old cobbled...

Next we have 131 Lawden Street taken in 1957, simple property over three floors but love the window display, selection of bottles and and the plate glass with patterns and Bitter and Mild.

We now go back to the pubs and outdoors of Roll 45, this is an easy one - Wheatsheaf Latimer Street, this is another of those I feel I have posted before - but as the are starting to merge now I am sure its not , the picture has a photo shopped look about with e background missing - Stonework...

Last of the tram picture on this roll we have Bristol Road Selly Oak , and the No. 70 to Rednal, first question - the advert on the front of the tram - what is it for? Mr Marlin / Martins Chunky? Bits and pieces in the background, in front of the tram we have a small child and a bike lying on...

Next we have Vittoria Road and Wellington Street Winson Green , we have everything in this one tram, rail embankment, pub and bundy clock. Although I dont have a year this is a much older image, tram has the open balcony at both ends and the pickup is the wider type, compare with the previous...

Apologies for the quality and description of this first image - we have " Old tram Erdington" which linked with the quality of the picture is not much help but its an old picture of a tram so I am sure it will do - moving away from us - angle of the collector rail on the roof, Littlewoods...

A bit different now is this tram standing on Washwood Heath Road , I dont have a year but I feel it must be in the '50's , I like how the adverts vary - Tizer down the side however E. Goodman complete house Furnishers is on the front , love the shop frontages and people going around their...

Offering a nice background to this No. 8 is the Harborne Road, note as mentioned on the last picture the Vernons sign along the side. Nice selection of buildings, iron railings and telephone box. Classic JOJ number plate, I was going to be clever and google JOJ and say what it was but JOJ number...

For a bit of difference, here is a few busses, I am not an expert - so feel free to offer more detail - I only have number and location and those I am reading off my sheet!! First we have No. 8 coming out of Islington Row, quite a busy scene, Provincial Bank in the background and unfortunately...

again with this picture I am having a deja vous moment - but cannot find a post - feel free to shout!! This is the Victoria Inn Bristol Street - next to No. 197 and so much to see, either side - TV shop and the other side is that a Launderette?, both of which are almost impossible to find...

This is the Nags Head outdoor - Irving Street off Holloway Head, taken in 1957, double fronted property with white painted brick and a painted name. To the left seems to be some painted letters and a definite black painted area to cover something.

Now in 1956 and we have the Bulls Head, Buckingham Street and Howard Street, I recognise this picture for some reason but I cannot see that I have posted it , so it must have been when I was looking through and saw the car, looks like a proper american one rather than the copies we started to...

Love the simplicity of this property, Tilton Road apparently, an outdoor, a step up to the steps , front door - front window and thats it basically, like the leaded glass in the front window and the simple things like the bottles of milk on the step next door - when was the last time you saw...

Ain't 'ot!! not sure how many I will post before I will melt but we will see. First up tonight we have the Crown Inn Leopold Street, taken around 1958, two attic rooms, love the painted pub sign and usual large lamp. I also ilike the large door, for deliveries, and the end of the painted sign...

Thanks address amended - too dark to type but don't like to put the lights on !!

Starting to look rather worse for wear and as if it is one of the last buildings in the area judging by the adjacent property this is the Anchor Inn, Benacre Street off Gooch Street, taken in 1950's. Not really sure if this was still open although it still has its windows and the large lamp...

Quick update - I moved onto Roll 45 only to find a number of pictures I posted in 2023, however these are better copies so I have been replacing these and then hunting to check for duplicates so this next image is the next " new" photo I believe. This is the Roebuck, Hollier Street and Darwin...

We now move to 112 Phillip Street Aston and an outdoor but this does have the look of a shop about it - Pool Terrace on the wall, curtains on the door and a trapdoor for deliveries. EDIT, Address amended thanks Brummy-lad

After Lyns praises on the Cromwell Street outdoor here is a picture of the Cromwell Arms Cromwell Street, I have previously posted a version but this one is a better version - as said previously I have scanned a negative of photos of photos

So sorry - Quite clearly says 47 on my list and I cannot even find an excuse for the error. I have amended the details to 47, thanks Mike
