'If you're crook come to Cook' on the Australian National


The back of a playing card featuring a sign that was displayed at the locality of Cook in the Nullarbor plain on the route of the Indian Pacific.  "Crook" is A/NZ slang for ill.  From the loco depicted this probably dates from the 1980s.

The hospital is now a thing of the past along with most of the settlement.  See earlier post on Cook.
