Gilbert MainesId recommend a Cubs only set starting with the Goudeys because the Cubs were a powerhouse in the thirties with Hartnett, Herman, Hack, Klein, Lindstrom, Cuyler, Stephenson, etc. Quite an exciting team at its 20th Century prewar peak.
However, a more advanced collection of Cubbies would be the players who participated on their 1884 team. These Cubs established the team season record for home runs (yes, in 1884) which took the 1927 Yankees to break! You'd have Clarkson, Kelly, Anson, and lots of others.
