Former Chicago Cubs outfielder Andy Pafko, 84, and shortstop Len Merullo, 88, are scheduled to join author Charles N. Billington at AU Sports Memorabilia in Skokie, IL for a reunion appearance 60 years after the men played in Wrigley Field's last World Series.
The elderly former Cubs will autograph memorabilia and reminisce about their seven-game series with the Detroit Tigers while Billington will sign copies of his new book, "Wrigley Field's Last World Series: The Wartime Chicago Cubs and the Pennant of 1945," detailing their historic season. This event is free and open to the public though there will be a charge for autographs.
