The only King I have known in Birmingham was the late Harold King ,or Mr King as he was known to any of us youngsters . He last worked as an old man in a shop in Wisemans building in Price Street . He was a well respected man and I knew him vaguely as an engraver and checkered .I was one told that he was the last foreman of the old Midland Gun Co.
He was one of those people that if he "said it was alright" then there was no argument and his opinion was held in esteam by many .
