The Birmingham Boys (also known as the Brummagem[1] Boys or the Brum Boys) were a street gang whose power extended from the North of England to London's underworld, between the 1910s and 1930s. They lost control of the South East racecourses to the Sabini gang.[2][3][4] In modern times they gained recognition due to the TV series Peaky Blinders.
