EH Smith Presence in Small Heath

Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone could help me?
I'm looking for some general history/photos/knowledge on EH Smith's presence in Small Heath in the 1920's - particularly any information regarding bricks (I'm not sure if this is even possible to find information on but thought I would give it a shot!). A very vague so apologies, I'm not looking for anything in particular, other threads have given me lots of inspiration so hoping I can spark something here also. I'm helping design elements of their new showroom in Digbeth and keen to gain some insight into their trade within the area at this time.
 
hi and welcome..hopefully we can help..there could be newspaper articles about this firm that some of our members could search for...where exactly were they situated in the early days..if you have a street or road i will search my photos unless of course you already have photos of the original building
