Several still alive from '50 Bowman, but best I can tell Curt Simmons is the only living player in the '49 set.

There is an earlier set than 1949 Bowman that Curt Simmons is in. It is the 1948 Philadelphia Bulletin Stand Ups. These are listed in the SCD Standard Catalog.

My set is packed away so I can't send a photo of the Simmons but you can see another example here:
