I know its doubtful but I was wondering if any players featured in the 33 Goudey set still living? If they were in their late teens in '33, they would be in their mid/late 90s now. Still possible. Any one know?

    If this list is accurate, then the answer is no.

    So the Oldest Living Major Leaguer makes his debut at 38 in 1950

    And at age 100 does not draw a major league pension and is reported to be living modestly in a room in a relative's Havana apartment.

    I wonder if he doesn't a MLB pension because he is living in Cuba or didn't pitch long enough....

    That would be a nice graph to get.

    Billy Werber was the last living player in the '33 Goudey set and he died just several years ago.
