Additional Information

This button is a fan button for the Chicago Cubs, with the same mascot as the 1969 "cubs power" bumper stickers and other souvenirs. The 1969 Chicago Cubs included many now-famous players, like Ron Santo, Billy Williams, and Ernie Banks; though they had a pretty solid season, the '69 season is remembered for their 17 game losing streak.
