Okay, but what about 1934 Goudey? They definitely had Cubs! True. The set kicked off with its first series (1-24) by repeating 24 players, artwork and all, from the 1933 set. Three Cubs were part of this group. But then their next series comes along, cards 25-48, featuring entirely new cards. Well, 15 teams were there, and one was absent. Which one? Of course it was the Cubs!
One possible explanation, always, is coincidence. However, I do have to wonder if something more was going on.

Quite an interesting topic.
Now, regarding the 1934 GOUDEY set, I count six CUBS in it. Two HOFers Cuyler (#90) and Klein (#10), and Grimm (#3), English (#4), Nelson (#60), Tinning (#71 ).
How do you explain this ?
There's something more here than just WRIGLEY GUM Co. vs GOUDEY GUM Co. ? ?
