1958 Topps football card of a former Pittsburgh Steeler defensive back who was just elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Jack Butler. Playing in an era when the NFL draft was 30 rounds long, Butler went undrafted, after a stellar college career at St. Bonaventure, but signed with the Steelers and carved out a sold nine year stint, making the Pro Bowl 4 times and grabbing 52 total interceptions. In 2008, he was named one of the top 33 Steelers of all time, quite an accomplishment considering the talented players who’ve played for the franchise over the years.
