Former Milwaukee Braves favorite Andy Pafko dies at 92 - JSOnline

Juat saw this. Thoughts to his family, an incredible man and person that left enough of a mark on my mothers childhood that she named me after "Handy Andy". We met him several times and he was a genuine, gracious, and humble man

My God, he was still alive?

RIP Andy...

Iconic card from 1952 Topps.

Love that 52 Topps.
Hard to find in good shape because the kids used to keep cards numerically and #1 always got messed up!

RIP, Andy. With Pafko's passing, there is now only one living man who has played for the Cubs in a World Series - Lennie Merullo. There is also only one living man who played against the Cubs in a World Series - Ed Mierkowicz of the Tigers.

Man, it's depressing being a Cubs fan.

Always thought his '49 Leaf was a sharp-looking card.

thats a shame but he did live a long life. I dont know how good of a life it was but he did get to play ball with some of the best players to hit the field and that to me means he had a GREAT life...
(my only card of his)
