Classic Sports Card of The Day

23 Aug

In 1950, the Topps card company printed a series of football cards, known as the 1950 Topps Felt Back Series, featuring college players. This card features University of Indiana quarterback and future NFL player Nick Sebek, who also was my high school gymn teacher. After finishing his college career, Sebek was drafted by the Washington Redskins, where he backed up Hall of Famer “Slingin’ ” Sammy Baugh. During World War II he served with the 82nd Airborne Division and quarterbacked the undefeated All Airborne team. Sebek passed away in 2007.
