The problem is in your description above. Static *text* controls can not
display an image. The static control has to have the SS_BITMAP style to
display a bitmap. It has to have the SS_ICON style to display an icon.
Check your .rc file and you will see that it doesn't have the SS_BITMAP
style. In ResEdit, check the properties for the static control and set the
one that gives it SS_BITMAP style. As I recall, if you click on each
property of a control, ResEdit has a status bar that gives you a hint as to
what it does.

Your output message is a little misleading. The first time you set the
image, you will get .nil back because there was no previous image. That's
not an error, it is to be expected.
I'm fairly sure this will work if you use the proper type of static
control. If it still doesn't work, then let me know.
