Did Thomas Cook issue their own traveler’s checks of some sort?

Yes, they did. Several decades ago, credit cards weren’t generally acceptable as “show money” at borders (cash to show you wouldn’t burden the welfare system) — but, traveler’s cheques were. I used Thomas Cook travelers cheques; and never had any trouble getting them cashed. They were a lot safer than carrying a large amount of cash. Credit cards are easier, and currency conversion is cheaper.
