Chicago Colts/Orphans/Cubs Tickets 1890's - 1911

1 Attachment(s)

These tickets are from some iteration of the Chicago Colts (1890-1897) / Chicago Orphans (1898-1902) / Chicago Cubs (1903-).

James A Hart (who designed the way home-plate looks) was elected President of the club in April of 1891, succeeding A. G. Spalding (NYT: July 19, 1919). He remained President until 1905. So obviously the ticket is from 1891 to 1905.

Second ticket has Charles Murphy as President (1906-1913). Also states Champions in the center of the ticket. The Cubs were the NL Champions 1906 - 1908 & 1910. They won the World Series in both 1907 & 1908. So I would assume the ticket is from 1907, '08, '09 or '11.

Wondering if anyone had tickets of the Chicago Cubs to share from this time or information other than what is stated.
