Five Random Cubs Cards

I've got 17,359 Cubs cards from 203 different brands listed on a spreadsheet. A random number generator picked five cards, one each from the past several decades.



1900s - 1970s: 1972 MLB Ernie Banks  This picture is from 1972 and Mr. Cub was no longer an active player.  Instead, he was a coach on Leo Durocher's staff.




1980s: 1988 Dornuss Book #315 Paul Noce It looks like the regular 1988 Donruss cards, but it came from a book of cards that Donruss sold that year.



1990s: 1994 Stadium Club #287 Derrick May  Always nice photography in Stadium Club.  Looks like May will make the catch of an easy fly ball.



2000s: 2008 Upper Deck #98JJ Jacque Jones This is my relic for Jacque Jones and it barely follows my rules.  While it doesn't show him as a Cub, the card has a Cubs designation, so I went with it.



2010s: 2016 Gypsy Queen #89 Anthony Rizzo  Rizzo gets ready to take a rip.  He has two cards in 2016 GQ.  There is also a short print with a photo variation.
