Martin Shaw was a descendant of Ben Shaw who started a well known soft drink (pop!!) business in Huddersfield in 1871. Although by the 1990's the company had moved on, as I remember it, Martin was still involved in the drinks business bottling and selling sparkling mineral water from a local source. The soda syphon radiator mascot on his Chummy was, therefore, very suitable an appropriate.
