Five Random Cubs Cards

I've got 20,679 Cubs cards from 304 different brands listed on a spreadsheet. A random number generator picked five cards, one each from the past several decades.



1900s - 1970s: 1977 Zipz Bobby Murcer Kudos to Zipz for a 1977 release that shows Murcer with the Cubs.  He was traded from the Giants on February 11.



1980s: 1987 Team Issued #10 Leon Durham This set was given away at Wrigley Field on Wednesday, July 29.  The Cubs were clobbered by the Expos 11-3 and Durham went 1-4.


1990s: 1996 Team Issued #27 Coaches  Interesting assortment of coaches, with to Hall of Famers and five Hall of Whos.


2000s: 2009 Upper Deck #576 Carlos Zambrano  Upped Deck did right showing Zambrano at the plate.  He won his third Silver Slugger in four years in 2009.

2010s: 2013 Cooperstown #66 Billy Williams Gold Panini made clever use of the design to hide the logo on Billy's hat.
