Sweet shop - 263 Frederick Road - Aston

Hello, Can anyone help with a pic from Frederick Road, Aston around 1975-80 of a sweet shop amongst the houses? It faced Dolman Road. My partner lived on road as a child and remembers smartly dressed white man who ran it with a bulging cheek (he always thought he was sucking a sweet), thinks he had a limp. Shop is now 'Islamgarh Houseware'. It has been other things since.
