A 1948 Leaf football card of a real football legend, the late “Slingin'” Sammy Baugh of the Washington Redskins. Baugh was a pioneer in the advent of what is now the modern passing game we as fans watch today. He was included in the inaugural class inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1963. Baugh was not only a two-way player as a quarterback and defensive back (most players played both ways in Baugh’s era), but also pro football’s premier punter. In the 1943 season, he led the NFL in passing, punting and interceptions.
