Dixon's Photographers

1940s Brummie
Can anyone help me identify, as precisely as possible, when Dixon's Camera shop moved to Union Street from (I think) New Street in the 1960s?

Many thanks,
John Ball
 
Not quite what you requested, but Kellys directories for 1961 (which might refer to 1960, as 1961 is publication date) show Dixons as at 11-12 Union St. The 1958 edition do not list dixons at all (though there is a Roy dixon, photographer in Northfield
 
Thanks to both of you for your helpful responses. I think mikejee has answered my query because Kelly's confirms that Dixons was in Union Street before 1963. My brother worked there when he left school (in 1963). He was fairly sure it was then in Union Street. He was right.
