An internet search reveals there was a Dundee tobacconist named Peter McLean who had premises at 16 High Street and 57 Commercial Street.
Peter McLean was born in Glasgow in 1830 and moved with his parents to Dundee in 1832, where his father opened a pipemaking business. Following time at sea, Peter returned to Dundee and started his own tobacconist business in 1854. In 1903, Peter's Commercial Street business was damaged, when fire broke out in the cellars.
Peter died in 1906, in Monifieth.
