Chicago Cubs
150th Anniversary
The Official Illustrated History

1n 1876, the original Chicago professional baseball team became a charter member of the new National League. Over the 150 years since, the Chicago Cubs—formerly the White Stockings, the Colts, and the Orphans—have been an integral thread in the rich tapestry of baseball in America. 

This is The Official Illustrated History of the Chicago Cubs, a one-of-a-kind, superlative-quality keepsake created with the Cubs, for Cubs fans, in partnership with Major League Baseball and the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum. 

Filled with hundreds of striking and exclusive photos, this treasury commemorates and celebrates the people, places, moments, and memories that make the Cubs unique and extraordinary.

From the West Side Grounds to Wrigley Field. From Albert Spalding to Cap Anson to Tinkers, Evers, and Chance. From Hack Wilson and Stan Hack to Ernie Banks and Billy Williams. Fergie, Santo, Ryno. The Homer in the Gloamin’ and Babe Ruth’s “called shot.” The Billy Goat and the Black Cat. Sammy Sosa’s 66th and Greg Maddux’s 300th. 

And, of course, the glory of 2016, when generations of longing mercifully ended, prayers were answered, and once again, at long last, the Chicago Cubs were World Series champions. 

But the story did not end there, as the Cubs retooled, reloaded, returned to the postseason, and are poised to create more unforgettable moments and centuries of memories. 

For Cubs fan of all stripes and every age, this special collectible is for you. 

Go, Cubs, Go!
