JIMMY ARCHER
"Jimmy Archer, he of the famous whip, was secured by the Cubs from Buffalo in 1908. He started as an outfielder with the Fargo, North Dakota, team, but when playing with Atlanta, of the Southern League, was put in to catch in an emergency, and won himself a regular place behind the bat. The Detroits had him in 1907 but let him go to Buffalo, where his good work got him back into the majors. Besides doing well as a catcher, he has been a good substitute for Chance at first."

MORDECAI BROWN
"Mordecai Brown, the Cubs' famous pitcher, had several years in the minors before he joined the Chicago team. The first two years he was with them he did very fair work but it was in 1906 that he made it evident what a great pitcher he was by winning 26 games and losing 6. The three years that the Cubs won the pennant, 1906, 1907 and 1908, he had winning percentages of .813, .769 and .763."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
FRANK CHANCE
"Frank Chance, known as 'Husk' by the Chicago fans, joined the Nationals there in 1898. Made manager in 1905, he led them to the National League Championship in 1906, 1907, 1908 and 1910 and to the World's Championship in 1907 and 1908.
His batting has been uniformly good, five times over the .300 mark, and at first base he has few equals. In 1910, on 814 chances, he made only three errors, the percentage of .996 being a major league record."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
JOHNNY EVERS
"Johnny Evers, the physically and mentally active second baseman of the Cubs, first played with them in 1903 and has since shone around the keystone sack of their famous infield. His name has been printed countless times as the pivot man in lightning double plays, and his individual work has also been of the wizard order.
Whether heading the batting list of the Cubs or lower down, he is a valuable asset, being a good waiter, a reliable hitter and once 'on,' a great run-getter."
-1911 American Tobacco Company set T205
BILL FOXEN
"Southpaw William A. Foxen, of the Chicago Nationals, started as a professional with New Bedford of the New England League in 1903. He spent the next four years with Hartford of the Connecticut League and Jersey City League of the Eastern League. In 1908 he was secured by the Philadelphia Nationals, and in 1910 Manager Chance, who wished to strengthen his corps of left-handers, made a good trade for the Cubs by taking him in exchange for Stack and Luderus. Manager Dooin considered him one of the best southpaws in the profession."
-1911 American Tobacco Company set T205
WILBUR GOOD
"Wilbur Good, outfielder of the Boston Nationals, made his entry into the major leagues with the Cleveland Americans in 1908. His fielding with the Naps improved in 1909, but his batting fell off, and they let the Philadelphia Athletics get him in a trade. The Athletics let him go to Baltimore of the Eastern League, where his consistent fielding and heavy hitting got him back into the majors with Boston and insured him a regular place in the lineup at the start of the 1911 season."
-1911 American Tobacco Company set T205
GEORGE GRAHAM
"George F. Graham, familiarly called 'Peaches,' has been a power behind the bat for the Boston Nationals. He broke into professional baseball with the Rock Island team of the I.I.I. League, and in 1904 became a member of the Colorado Springs club of the Western League. In 1905 he joined the Minneapolis team, and his versatility was shown by his playing at second, short and in the outfield as well as catching. In the fall of 1907, his release was bought by the Boston Nationals."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
JOHNNY KLING
"Johnny Kling, one of the greatest catchers who ever wore a mask, was acquired by the Cubs from St. Joseph in 1900. Until 1903, he was only their second catcher, but when in that year Chance went from behind the bat to first base, Kling began his wonderful record as backstop for the Cubs' splendid machine. Besides being a power behind the plate, his batting in the four championship years, 1906-07-08-10, averaged .285."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
HARRY MCINTYRE
"Harry McIntyre commenced playing professional ball with Dayton, Ohio, and after a varied experience in the minors and with Brooklyn, became a member of the Cubs pitching staff in 1910, and succeeded in turning in thirteen wins. His batting average that year was better than most pitchers, only four in the National League doing better. He has a record of 108 strike outs in 1908, 91 in 1909 and 65 in 1910."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
TOM NEEDHAM
"Tom Needham, Chicago's substitute catcher, after several years in the minor leagues of the west, was secured by the Boston Nationals and played with them for two years. In 1908 he caught 47 games for the Giants and in 1909 was taken by the Cubs, but had no chance to distinguish himself as the 154 games were divided between Moran and Archer. In 1910, he caught 28 games and had only three errors on 165 chances."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
ORVAL OVERALL
"Orval Overall, the large-framed pitcher of the Chicago Nationals, came to that from Cincinnati in 1906. His greatest pitching for them was winning fourteen consecutive victories in the fall of 1907 and the spring of 1908. Of his 47 games won in 1908-09-10, 17 were shutouts. In four years, on 294 fielding chances, he made only 11 errors."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
JACK PFIESTER
"Jack Pfiester, the southpaw whom the Cubs traded to Louisville in May 1911, entered organized baseball with the Baltimore team in 1901. He spent 1902 with the Columbus and Spokane teams and 1903 with San Francisco. The Pittsburgh management then owned his services for a few months but let him go to Omaha, where he did so well in 1904 and 1905 that the Cubs got him.
With them, he has pitched more in some seasons than others, being especially strong in 1909, when he won 17 games and lost 6. At one time, he beat the New Yorks so regularly that Chicago fans called him 'Jack the Giant Killer.' "
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
ED REULBACH
"Big Ed Reulbach, the Chicago Nationals' tall pitcher, has caused many victories to go on the record. In 1906, 1907 and 1908 he led the National League with percentages of .826, .810 and .774.
On September 26, 1908, when the grueling finish between the Giants and Cubs was on, he shut out Brooklyn in both halves of a doubleheader."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
LEWIS RICHIE
"Lewis Richie, one of the twirling staff of the Chicago Nationals, first pitched for independent and semi-professional teams in the neighborhood of Williamsport, his home town. In 1905 the Williamsport Club, of the Tri-State League, took him on, and he made so good a reputation by his work that he was secured by the Philadelphia Nationals. In July 1909, he was traded to Boston, and early in 1910 was taken by the Chicago Cubs. In mid-season, when several of their veterans were out of the game, Richie's services were of great help to them."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
FRANK SCHULTE
"Frank M. Schulte, one of the Cubs' star outfielders, was signed by them in 1904 and has thus been an active agent in helping them land the pennant four times. All critics admire the easy and graceful style of his hitting; that is also what the figures for 1910 show- 168 hits for a total of 257 bases. His batting for his seven years with Chicago averages .273.
In the field he has an excellent record. In 1908 he only made one error in 89 games, giving him an average of .992, a major league record for outfielders."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
DAVID SHEAN
"David Shean, the young second baseman of the Boston Nationals, first played as a professional in Rutland, Vermont. After a short experience there and in Montreal, he went to Williamsport of the Tri-State League. Here, the high figures for his batting and fielding in 1908 caused him to be drafted by the Philadelphia Nationals. From Philadelphia, he was traded to Boston in the summer of 1909."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
JIMMY SCHECKARD
"Jimmy Scheckard was secured by the Cubs from Brooklyn in 1906 and first played with them that year, so he has been one of the regulars in the little band that won four National League pennants in five years. In those five years he has taken part in 697 games, which is in itself a fine record for consistent and faithful service.
In 1910 his 130 hits included 27 two-baggers, six three-baggers and five home runs. That same season, being a good waiter, he got 83 free passes."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
JOE TINKER
"Joe Tinker, the brilliant Chicago shortstop, has a consistently good record in the field and at bat. In 1908 he played 22 consecutive games in June without an error, and at the end of the season led shortstops with a percentage of .958 on 923 chances.
During 1908, 1909 and 1910 he safely 414 times for 594 total bases, including 73 two-baggers, 34 three-baggers and 13 home runs."
