T. W. Camm & Co. (1888-1960)
Thomas Camm (1839-1912) had worked for Chance Brothers, under Samuel Evans. He established the firm Camm Bros with his two brothers in about 1865, until the firm was bought in 1882. Thomas William Camm then established his own firm in Smethwick, Staffordshire in 1888. His children Florence (1874-1960), Walter (1881-1967) and Robert (1878-1950) designed for the firm, and took over its running in 1912. They were the designers and principal executants of all the firm's work after that date.Further reading
