He was a former President of the Board of Trade, so maybe.

Wouldn't say the clue was too easy... just that Google is all powerful!

Correct!
There are still cabs out there that have the original "Puckman" sign. Rare though.

Finally. A question I can probably get right, given that there's only about 40 squares to choose from and you've definitely asked this question before...

Is it the Electric Company?

No. And they don't use sex either.

(Although it does remind me of some Pacific Island where American sailors discovered that the native laydeez would take nails in exchange for sex. Next thing you know, the sailors had scuppered their own ship in an attempt to get their hole, and they were forever stranded there).

That story may well be apocryphal btw!
