In celebration of the 50th anniversary of the historic 1969 team, the Chicago Cubs today debuted an interactive web documentary titled "1969 Cubs" that interlaces the story of what Hall of Famer Billy Williams referred to as the "most talked about team that ever finished second" with key historical moments from the moon landing to Woodstock and more.
Through historical articles, archived footage and captivating documentary-style videos that include never-before-seen interviews with beloved Hall of Famers Ernie Banks and Ron Santo, "1969 Cubs" delivers a truly immersive storytelling experience, conveyed through hand-drawn mobile animations, for fans of the team and U.S. history.
"1969 Cubs" is the first installment of a new series from the Chicago Cubs called "Timeless" that highlights the rich, authentic and timeless stories of the baseball club. Fans can experience the interactive web documentary at www.1969ChicagoCubs.com.
