How do you explain this ?
There's something more here than just WRIGLEY GUM Co. vs GOUDEY GUM Co. ? ?

Yes, Ted, your information is correct. Because the entire first series (1-24) consisted of players and artwork recycled from 1933, three Cubs showed up there "for free." But when the first new series of cards was issued (25-48), it included all 16 MLB teams except the Cubs. And then, as you note, there were Cubs in the third and fourth series.
