Another avenue you could try would be the Bullring itself. At one time I would have suggested you try the Market office. But I no longer know where that is.
You could try the Customer Service Team on 0121 632 1500 (they are probably in Pakistan) I doubt they will have a clue what you are on about but they may be able to point you in the right direction.
I have no doubt that you will come across the Data Protection Act because most of these stallholders will still be alive.

A couple of soap box preachers in the Bullring from 47 & 49 I don't suppose this is early enough for either of them to be your relations though.

Yes it could be the same chap without his glasses. He doesn't look well pleased with whats being given out.
As you say in your previous post he certainly looks old enough to be your man.
I will see what else I can come up with, but I don't think there were all that many Holy Joe's or Jimmy Jesus's as they were called in the Bullring except on Sundays.

Welcome to our forum Wiseman.
The Bull Ring Market office is on the corner of the Rag market, St. Martins Church side.
