The card features a color photograph of Fran Tarkenton in his Minnesota Vikings jersey, with a vivid yellow border and 'VIKINGS' in large green block letters at the top. His name and position, 'FRAN TARKENTON • QB', are printed in red block lettering at the bottom. The background shows a grassy field and blue sky, giving the card a classic early 1970s Topps design feel. This card has been encapsulated and graded by PSA, receiving a grade of 2 (Good), indicating visible wear, soft corners, some surface soiling, or mild creasing.

Tarkenton, a Hall of Fame quarterback, is well-known for pioneering scrambling and mobility at the position and was a central figure for both the Minnesota Vikings and New York Giants during his prolific career. This card is a base issue from one of the most popular vintage Topps football sets and is distinct for its bright, simple design and iconic team/font styling.
