Wikipedia, our picture source, tell you all you need to know about the Stanley Cup, even the name of the silversmith from whom Lord Stanley bought it, G. R. Collis and Company (now Boodle and Dunthorne Jewellers). However, by the time the Cup was purchased the Collis premises in Regent Street had been taken over by Carrington & Co.
The original cup, awarded each year until 1970, is now on display in the vault at the Hockey Hall of Fame, Toronto, Ontario.
