Set: 1972 Topps

Card: #200 Roger Staubach

What makes it special? This is considered the rookie card of the Hall of Fame quarterback who played his entire career (from 1969 to 1979) with the Dallas Cowboys. He led the Cowboys to two of their five Super Bowl wins to date (VI and XII). He was born February 5, 1942, so we celebrate his career this month.

Did you know? Staubach won the Heisman Trophy while at the Naval Academy, but didn't play in the NFL until age 27, after his four-year commitment to the military was complete. The back of this card also highlights the job that he switched to after his football career: real estate.
