Default Living HOF Members Who Played in the '50s

With the great amount of HOF'ers who have past away this past year . I was wondering how many HOF'ers were still alive that played in the 1950's era (my childhood heroes ). I found only 8 remain from this era. Let's honor them. I found the following ( year listed is year of debut ):
1) Luis Aparicio 1956
2) Orlando Cepeda 1958
3) Whitey Herzog 1956
4) Sandy Koufax 1955
5) Willie Mays 1951
6) Bill Mazeroski 1956
7) Brooks Robinson 1955
8) Billy Williams 1959

Such a tough year for A-list HOFs, but still a few genuine legends left.

Cool card, Val, and a great root beer. At least it used to be, I probably haven't had one in 50 years!
