Five Random Cubs Cards

 I've got 20,723 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: 1952 Topps #184 Bob Ramazzotti  Ramazzotti was a part-time second baseman for the 1952 Cubs.  He hit .284 in 50 games.


1980s: 1985 Topps #538 Keith Moreland You really don't have any question as to whom this card belongs to, with his name and number so prominently featured


1990s: 1993 Topps Gold #12 Greg Maddux  Maddux cards from 1993 are always painful to look at since he was a Brave in 1993.



2000s: 2005 Merrick Mint Signature Aramis Ramirez Merrick Mint's way around the lack of an MLB license was to take hatless pictures of all of the players.


2010s: 2016 Topps Update #281 Anthony Rizzo All-Star  Rizzo is doing his Michael Jordan tongue imitation here.  He was the NL's starting first baseman.  Batting in the six spot, he was 1-2.
