DESCRIPTION

This is Bart Starr's 1960 Topps #51 — a genuine piece of NFL royalty from the season that started it all. By 1960, Starr had just led Green Bay to the Western Division championship, the opening act of the most dominant run in NFL history: five championships and back-to-back Super Bowl titles, with Starr named MVP of both Super Bowl I and Super Bowl II. The man on this cardboard is the architect of Titletown.

The 1960 Topps football set is one of the most visually striking issues of the era. Its "pure card" design puts the player photo front and center, with nothing but the player's name, team, and position tucked into a football-shaped icon at the bottom — clean, timeless, and instantly recognizable. The 132-card set is anchored by just a handful of true stars, and Starr at #51 is one of its premier names alongside Jim Brown and Johnny Unitas. PSA has logged over 330 sales on this card, confirming steady, sustained collector demand across all grade tiers.

  • Player: Bart Starr — two-time Super Bowl MVP, five NFL championships, Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee (1977), Green Bay Packers #15 retired
  • Set: 1960 Topps Football, #51 — 132-card single-series NFL set with uniform print run (no short prints)
  • Design: Player-photo-dominant front; green-on-white card back with career stats and a Football Funnies scratch-off quiz
  • Market comps: PSA 4 copies trading in the $88–$109 range; PSA 5 around $87–$190; PSA 6 graded copies reaching $191+; a PSA 7 raw beauty listed at $225. Total PSA auction value tracked at over $61,000 in all-time sales

Vintage Starr cardboard rarely sits long. This is a 65-year-old card of the quarterback who won the Ice Bowl, commanded the greatest dynasty the NFL has ever seen, and remains one of the most beloved figures in football history. Whether you're a Green Bay Packers collector, a vintage Topps football hunter, or building a Hall of Fame quarterback PC, the 1960 Topps Bart Starr #51 belongs in the stack.
