If it's the one with the 'Persil' sign, that's Crookes,at Stothard Rd/Northfield Rd junction
The Punchbowl pub would be a little way behind the photographer (or would have been )
Incidentally Carracks was a paint and wallpaper shop and also where Paul Carrack the rather famous musician grew up.

No Elf and Safety in 1964 then and a little before the 'Working at height' guidelines.
