I realize this isn't Earth shattering for most, but the Cubbies version of these banks never seem to turn up. I consider it super rare. Cubs collectors are are pretty aggressive and the good stuff doesn't last long. This one is in exceptional condition. It was 4: 00 am when I found it so I took a sec to "make an offer" . The sellers settings were such that I was in the range and it was accepted immediately YEAH! Do any fellow Cubs collectors on the board agree with my scarcity assessment?

I've never seen the Cubs version. Off the top of your head, Mike, how many teams were represented?

Not many. Those that I recall are mostly Nats, Phils, Tigers, White Sox, Twins, Yanks. I would love to hear from others on this topic.


I have had a search in my settings for the Cubs forever and don't recall another opportunity to purchase one but I'm sure they are out there considering the number of banks in the Chicagoland area that may have used them.

These are full size pennants on the way to me now.
