Stanley Williams Cock was the third of six children born to a surgeon, Williams Cock and his wife Jane in July 1874. The family lived at Queens Road, Peckham, London. Stanley Cock contributed to pictorial magazines of his day, and illustrated humorous postcards and amusing children's books. He had an enduring association with publishers Thomas Nelson, with titles that included 'Jolly Jimbo and other Rhymes for Children' by AEM Bayliss, 'The Spindle Tree' by Agnes Grozier Herbertson and 'Mother Hankey and her Animals' by E Lucia Turnbull. He died in London in 1929. His youngest brother Hylton, also an illustrator, had an antique shop in Blackheath Village, SE London during the early part of the twentieth century.
