Phyllis Nicklin - Birmingham UK in the 1960s

[perkeleellinen]

I've just discovered Phyllis Nicklin's photos of Brum taken in the 1950s and '60s. There's about 400 or so images stored on the University of Birmingham's website. They're scanned at a good size so you can look at all the historical details:

Enjoy!

Thanks for the links. Have been in Birmingham a few times for work in the last year so for me it's a fascinating archive. Will pass it on to Brum chums.

You should look at Nick Hedges work on Birmingham.
