Default Players who are more known for a card than their career.
Got to thinking about players who are probably more known for a card than their career. I can think of a few. Pre- or Post- war.

Irving Lewis- T207 Brown Border
Bill Ripken- 1989 Fleer F***Face
Alex Gordon- 2006 Topps

I'd probably even add Andy Pafko to this list with his '52 Topps card..

Can anybody think of anyone else that may fall into this category...

After a little more thought, there alot of players who ended up on multi-player rookie cards that would fall into this category. And as great as Jerry Koosman might have been, he probably falls into this category as well. I'm hoping to avoid any multi-player suggestions with this list though..

Good call. He crossed my mind, and I was wondering if anyone else would even consider him on a list like this. I do agree, he probably belongs here.
