As Player/Manager of the Cubs, Chance's hitting, base-stealing, and tough managing style resulted in the Cubs winning National League pennants in 1906,
1907, 1908, and 1910.
When they beat Detroit twice in the World Series (1907 and 1908), it was the last time the Cubs were ever World Champions.
Frank Chance was one tough dude, on and off the field. In the off seasons he would engage in prizefighting. Boxing legends Jim Corbett & John L. Sullivan
referred to Chance as....."the greatest amateur brawler of all time".
On display here is my favorite T206 Chance portrait as a function of its various T-brand advertisements.
So....how's about showing your Frank Chance cards and stuff. Any BB card issue of Chance is appreciated.
