Does anyone have an old map showing where Little King Street was? I believe it was perhaps in the Hockley area, as Great King Street still exists here. Thanks

Lucas Parties & Pantomimes

How many Brummie kids out there attended a works Xmas party at Lucas's. I know as a youngster I went to Pantos, and the Circus all organised by Cannings, did Lucas do the same thing? Were you one of those children, or indeed a parent employed by Lucas. We would love to hear from you...

Former Lucas employees?

I have an interest in Jaguar history of the 1950s, and Lucas of course supplied to Jaguar.
I have details of part of the ignition system of a Jaguar from 1959 that has a special part number overstamped on it that is not shown in the Lucas catalogues of the day. The overstamp looks to have been done by Lucas as it matches the original stamoing.
Is there anyone on this site who might have some knowledge of special orders handled by Lucas back in the 1950s or so? The part number I have is RT16333, from 1959.
Thanks!
