Default KB 'ghost' sign

Ghost signs have featured here before but not many radio ones (I could not see any reference to this one but apologies if it's been spotted before), this one caught my eye whilst driving through Nottingham on the way to the Great Central Railway for a works volunteering day.
I don't suppose it really is a 'ghost' sign as it appears to have been over painted at some point or very well preserved.

I couldn't stop for a picture so this is captured from street view. Its near 373 Nuthall Rd, Nottingham NG8 5BU. I could not find much about Lee and Goodjohn other than one reference to an electrical shop.

I was just about to post and remembered you can go back in time on street view, I found a better view and then surprisingly it had gone ... replaced by a MAZDA LAMPS sign, looking closely this appears to be a board removed sometime after 2011 revealing the original sign, so maybe it is original paintwork?
