Nicknamed “Captain America,” Roger Staubach is one of the most famous NFL quarterbacks of all time. He played for the Dallas Cowboys, wearing #12 faithfully throughout his entire career. He is still involved with the Cowboys, often commenting on current deals and headlines that pertain to the franchise.

The Sports Illustrated edition from November 29, 1963 featured Staubach on the cover. Staubach was supposed to be on the front cover of LIFE instead of SI, but the Kennedy assassination occurred a little over a week before, changing those plans. Rare first editions of the magazine are worth up to $1,800 to serious collectors.
