I am looking for a picture of 5 York Road, Kings Heath (opposite the Hare and Hounds), as early in date as possible.
After she was widowed my husband's great-great-grandmother had a second-hand furniture shop here from at least 1915-1945. I could just use a modern photo (it seems it was recently a computer shop) but am hoping for something a little more historical.
In the 1970s picture it's the shop just out of sight on the left, next to Reg Moore's butcher's shop. In the 1954 picture I'm pretty sure it's the pram shop, but you can only see the sign. In the Google images it is the computer shop with the grey shutters.
I am sure you can feel my frustration. After two days of searching this site and across the web I decided to ask you people for help. If you can't find what I'm looking for I will just have to accept it doesn't exist.
