1960 Topps #101 Ernie Stautner PSA 9 – A Near-Mint Tribute to a Steelers Warrior

Ernie Stautner was the definition of toughness, a defensive lineman who anchored the Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense with an unmatched blend of strength, technique, and relentless intensity. Despite playing in an era when the Steelers struggled to find consistent success, Stautner was a shining star, earning nine Pro Bowl selections, ten All-Pro nods, and universal respect from opponents and teammates alike. His ferocious playing style and leadership made him the first player in franchise history to have his jersey retired (#70), a testament to his impact on the organization. A Hall of Fame inductee in 1969, Stautner remains one of the toughest and most dominant defensive linemen in NFL history.
