Which Cook?

[MGiuseffi1969]

Hey all. I have a pretty extensive Rangers Pre-WWII collection. One card in my collection always bothered me. Well, today I was searching eBay and I saw another copy of this card pop up:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280678244688&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT\

According to all publications I have seen this card is listed as Bill Cook. The Boston thing always bothered me, since Bill never played for the Bruins. Here's his playing career stats:

Clearly Bill was still playing in Saskatoon in 1924 when this set was produced.

After a little research I found this guy did play with the Bruins for a few games in 1924... Lloyd Cook:

Any thoughts on this?

Is it Bill in the picture? If yes, an error. If not, then it's clearly Lloyd.

I had no recollection of Bill Cook being part of the Maple Crispette set. I suspect you are correct in it being Lloyd Cook.

I suppose that it is Bill Cook. Just look here:

http://www.vintagecardprices.com/ca...ette-Bill-Cook-6-Hockey-Card-Value-Prices.htm

There is no photo, but the number is 6 and the Cook from ebay is 1924/25 V130, an nuber 6 in that set is Bill Cook. Luk.

I understand the card catalogs have attributted this card to Bill Cook for years. I think they are all WRONG!

Should be wrong. I found a few seconds ago: http://www.sportslinkup.com/shop/0-Maple-crispette-1.html There is his name Lloyd Cook. Luk.

It seems that you are right. It gives no sense to be Bill Cook. Luk.

It is really strange. :-D Sorry, for too much posts, but it really interests me.

This is Bill Cook with no doubds i think:

But this guy seems as his twin, dont you think?

So the problem should be only with the team name on the 6th of V130 card. Luk.

Perhaps similar... But Bill Cook playes for the Saskatoon Sheiks in 1924. Were players from that team included in this release?

I suppose they werent. I have checked the jerseys and it also seems (from the stripe on the left hand), that the guy at V130 (nuber 6 Cook) is wearing Bruins jersey from middle 20´s. This one, as Redding wore:

So only possible solution seems to be your idea - Lloyd Cook. Luk.
