It looks like Sandy Koufax to me, but I don't know what year those came out.

Came out from 50-52

Then I guess not.

Possible NY on the cap but can't tell if that would be Yankees or Giants, although I'm leaning toward the latter.

I would guess Johnny Berardino, but not real sure. The ear looks right, and the cap emblem could be St. Louis.

It's clearly a NY Giants hat, so I'd root through the rosters and pics from the estimated 1950-52 time frame to zero in on who this semi-Koufaxish looking player could be. Definitely a frustrating undertaking.

This is one of those 1947-1952 Gumball Charms that had no names or other identifying info on them. The cap emblem actually looks like Pirates to me, which could fit Berardino, as well, but it must be an uncataloged item, like some others mentioned here: https://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=66836

I think we have a winner. Gordon was with the Giants in 1949.
