The Wrigley's sign at Piccadilly circus

Van's reference to "the Wrigley's sign" in Piccadilly Circus, London is made more clear by examining the vintage postcard above: obviously it would have made an excellent meeting point. The sign is no longer there: I've no idea how long it would have been at that intersection. In case there is anyone immune to mass marketing, Wrigley's is an American brand of chewing gum, popular worldwide.
