When was the last time the Chicago Cubs won 57 before the All-Star Break?

Question

When is the last time the Chicago Cubs won 57 games before the All-Star Break?

BONUS: In which seasons have the Cubs won more than 80 games in a year?

Answer 1

The All Star game didn't exist until 1933 so they've never won 57 before the break until this year.  edit: Actually in 1969 they were 61-37 at the All Star break on July 23rd.

More than 80 victories in a year: 2007, 2004, 2003, 2001, 1998, 1993, 1989, 1984, 1977, 1972, 1971, 1970, 1969, 1968, 1967, 1963, 1946, 1945, 1939, 1938, 1937, 1936, 1935, 1934, 1933, 1932, 1931, 1930, 1929, 1928, 1927, 1926, 1924, 1923, 1918, 1913, 1912, 1911, 1910, 1909, 1908, 1907, 1906, 1905, 1904, 1903,  1891, 1890, 1886, 1885,

Answer 2

1908   bonus-2001

Answer 3

The answer to question #1 is 1908, the year in which they won back to back series alongside with 1907.

Bonus: 1906, 1977, 1969, 1989, and 2001. For the most recent ones, just go and take a look at the Yahoo Baseball Standings and review the standings of the previous years and look at the win column

Edit: My bad, the last time they won 57 before the break was in like 1907 or 1908 when they had a 116-46 record (.763)
