I've got 21,868 Cubs cards from 317 different brands listed on a spreadsheet. A random number generator picked five cards, one each from the past several decades.
1900s - 1970s: 1972 O-Pee-Chee #29 Bill Bonham Bonham looks really young in this picture. It was taken in Scottsdale in 1971, when he was in just his second season of pro ball. When he made it to the majors during the 1971 season, he wore #33, not the #52 he has on in the picture.
1980s: 1985 Subway Rick Sutcliffe This is one of my most wanted acquisitions of 2024.
1990s: 1992 Pinnacle #414 Mike Morgan What an odd place to crop his head, right at his neck. It looks like the white border is decapitating him.
2000s: 2006 Fleer #109 Todd Walker Walker is on the go in an early spring game, with brown ivy in the background.
2010s: 2018 Donruss #80 Willson Contreras The Donruss set should be catchers only, because hiding the logos is pretty easy with all of the gear that they wear.
