Looking for photos of Ideal Picture House Kings Heath 1913-32

I'm trying to find any photos of the Ideal Picture House in Kings Heath 1913-32. The entrance was at 106A High Street where Admiral is now and before that was my grandfather's furniture shop Spiers Furnishers 1936-73. The auditorium was at 2 York Road and then from 1933 was Ideal Billiards Club, then Ritz Ballroom, Ritz Bingo Club, Cash Converters and unfortunately burnt down in 2013. I have collected quite a lot of info about the cinema by searching online, newspaper archive etc. but have found no photos. As it was either side of the Hare & Hounds, does anyone have any photos of that area from 1913-32 that might show the Ideal Picture House? Or any interesting information. Thanks.
