Historical NotesOriginal card that Art Rooney Jr. requested be used by Merv Corning to create a portrait of Chuck Noll. Using this card from the series of Hall of Famers featuring the 1970 Steelers teams, Corning produced such a likeness that Rooney asked that giclee copies be made and that Chuck Noll autograph the limited edition piece.
