1966 Donruss MARVEL COMIC CARDS Are Exploding On EBAY! Are These Trading Cards For Real?!?

In this video I talk about the recent SURGE of the 1966 Donruss Marvel Trading cards. We saw a flurry of huge sales for the high grade psa cards. While the donruss set has been around for a long time and have been creeping up over the last two years...this recent explosion has been on another level. Is this another speculation boom for comic cards like the impel 1990 marvel universe was? Or are these "rookies" actually here to stay. I bring on special guest The 9.9 Newsstand to break it all down for us.
What do you guys think of Marvel Cards and the Donruss set?

Swagglehaus, my friend, thank you so much for having me on! Such a fun conversation to be having. And such a pleasure to be having it with you. Thank you again!!

[@blucomicguy8705]

Manu!! Sam from Blue Moon Comics. How many are you hoarding?!..... lol. I have a complete set at the shop but, they were all taped together by a kid in the 60's. 😵‍💫 Hope you are well!

[@The9.9Newsstand]

[@ryanmefford1272]

@@The9.9Newsstand I am curious to hear your thoughts on the 1980 Marvel Terrabusi set if you are familiar with it.

[@The9.9Newsstand]

@@ryanmefford1272 oh I’m a fan! Dope cards. Tough grades. Fun challenge. I enjoy them. The stickers, the cards, and even the pogs. If someone grades out a PSA 10 of the Spidey card, I’m gonna celebrate that. Whether I own it or not, it’s going to be cool to know that it exists. And that Wolverine card from the set is the first Wolverine card ever if I’m not mistaken. Definitely dope! Thanks for asking!

[@jameskm03]

I'm pretty sure I found this channel during that 90's marvel card hype. Full circle. I still have sealed product of 90's stuff I bought cheap about a decade ago just sitting on a shelf. I bought it because I couldn't afford it as a kid and Rudy convinced me that sealed product was the way...

[@PhoenixRiseComics]

I had a full set in the 90s. I loved collecting them as a teen! When I was in my 20s I thought I was too cool for comics so I threw them away.....

[@DocReasonable]

Same here on that last part.... kicking myself now!

[@JohnnyDunn]

LETS GOO!! Been grabbing a lot of IP rookie cards the last year. Have the captain america rookie 1966 donruss psa 5! That’s the first ever marvel card ever! Also the batman 1966 that’s batman’s rookie card have a psa 4. And luke skywalker psa 7 that’s the first ever starwars card!! Glad these are getting attention finally 🙏🏼💪🏼🔥

As an old collector I have to admit that these mostly Silver Age cards are super cool. I don’t see myself buying any however, I’d rather put my funds into comics.

[@djmoonchild01]

Nice to see this covered. I put together a complete binder set and almost a complete graded set, love em!

[@furbl4345]

did you have them graded by PSA or CGC, and which one is better?

[@djmoonchild01]

I bought graded. PSA, SGC & CGC. Blue label CGC was by far my favorite then they canceled that label🤦🤦

[@furbl4345]

@@djmoonchild01 So CGC no longer offer the blue label for card grading? I have some I wanted to have them graded but they are mostly from the 90's and most likely don't worth much cause of the mass production during that time 😶

[@djmoonchild01]

@@furbl4345 yea, they canceled it after all us comic folks started using them. They don't care.

[@richardlaino1079]

I have a complete 55 card set from 1967…the pop numbers on psa are hard to believe compared to sought after classic non-sport sets….looking forward to the 1967 review if you could….thanks!

[@djmoonchild01]

For cards this old psa 4 is actually great condition, anyone who knows vintage sport card grading know this. Marvel card folks are just used to 9's & 10's but for vintage 7 is ultra high grade. Even 3's can be really nice cards in my experience. Id say binder for 3 n under, slab for 4 and above.

[@Wr0ngNumb3r]

I’m sure you won’t remember, but I was the one that said not to waste your money grading your 90s cards and that the much better set was the 1966 as well as the 70’s Topps Marvel sticker set. Been collecting non-sports cards since I was 5 and my Parents got me some packs of the 1966 Batman set.

[@The9.9Newsstand]

1966 Batman!!! An awesome set!! Did you grade cards or keep your collections raw?

[@Wr0ngNumb3r]

@@The9.9Newsstand My collection is all raw. Mars Attacks, all the original Batman sets, Outer Limits, original Wacky Packages and lots more. When I was collecting them virtually no one was. I always had to explain what a non-sports card was.

[@bobwaldrep6214]

Thanks for sharing this info. As someone who bought a lot of bubble gum as a kid to get a complete set of these cards, I've wondered why they aren't given more attention. I chewed a lot of really horrible gum but ended up with one full set, a set about 90% complete and an additional 40 or so cards. Thanks for the informative videos.

[@The9.9Newsstand]

lol, that’s very cool. Do you still have them with you? I think they will be getting a lot of new found appreciation. Most everyone I talk to are only just hearing about them, for the first time. I’m glad you enjoyed the video!Appreciate you for taking the time!

[@jeffpearce8748]

Love your content man 👍

[@Joeh1154]

Thanks for posting as this was of interest to me. I'm an OG Marvel fanboy from the 1960's. I do indeed have a complete, 66 card raw set of the Donruss Marvel Super Heroes cards from 1966. I also have a number of dupes and a couple of slabbed cards that I bought on eBay many years ago. I had no idea they were hot.

[@The9.9Newsstand]

That’s very cool! If ever you’re thinking of selling something from your collection, please do think of me. I’d love to be able to consider it. Hope all is well!

[@tophergrailz1167]

Thanks Swag! Now i blame you for my last 2 cards. Just picked up the spiderman 1966 #34 and #6. Now a new rabit hole 🔥🔥🔥

[@kenmaingot]

I have 61 out of the 66 card set and have decided to sell. Hope the trend continues!

[@jeffschmitt6977]

Cards look okay cause they are 1966. Would rather have the 1976 Marvel Sticker set.

[@amedeomodigliani4389]

Didn’t even know these cards existed, cool

[@bobwaldrep6214]

Still got em and can still taste the bubble gum. I'll try to remember to pull them out and post a pic.

[@dakoitcave817]

These 1966 cards look so much like Lichtenstein’s work.

[@Teacherguy06]

Rare cards, I have about 10 raw cards that didn't look gradable but now I will send them in. I got them from an antique shop over 20 years ago and never thought about them till this video showed up. $$$$

[@The9.9Newsstand]

That’s cool! And you’ll basically just be into them the cost of grading. Should be fun!

[@djmoonchild01]

1967 Philadelphia is way more scarce and almost nobody knows about em. I have a complete set. Has rookie cards for Dr. Strange, Namor and all of the Fantastic four.

[@popsequentialism7213]

It is sooo difficult to get Gem Mint PSA 10 scores on raw cards -especially on non-sport cards and from sets issued prior to the 1990s.

[@The9.9Newsstand]

Very true!

[@leeniren3706]

I used to collect all these kind of cards. What a shame that I no longer have them.

[@traestratton3109]

Really interesting. Something to scour the antique stores for.

[@The9.9Newsstand]

Oh definitely!! Happy hunting!!

[@dradatzke]

The series 1 cards from 1990 was one of my introductions into Marvel. Still own a few sets and lives them all!

[@magusxxx]

So what might this means for those Marvel paperbacks from the 1960/70's?

[@AntonioSantos-gt6le]

Is the binder from 1990 marvel with the spiderman holographic cover worth anything 🤔

[@heroicgoods]

It’s truly fascinating how many of the people that are now saying these cards are awesome used to say they weren’t important because they didn’t have original art and silly word balloons. Also many of those people are the same that quietly bought PMGs, and then said they were cool. The “OG collectors that kept them secret” before were the ones that are pumping them right now. My advice is don’t get caught holding the bag and buy in right now - the people making money on this are the ones that have already been planing this a few years!

[@furbl4345]

What about those marvel hologram cards (venom, spidey, etc.) from the 90's, are they worth anything?

[@The9.9Newsstand]

Many of them are loved and valuable… But it all depends on the condition. Because the real monetary value is in a gem mint graded example. And usually the highest prices go to the PSA 10s. it is nuanced, and some are much more rare and sought-after than others. But it’s fun to learn about! Buy even beyond condition or monetary value, we all love them very, very much for their nostalgic and sentimental value. Everyone, at any price point, can enjoy cool 90s cards.

[@beowulf1563]

Comics and cards have always gone hand-to-hand I have never understood why there is no market for them. The fact that most people threw them away or put them in the spokes of their bike wheels would leave one to believe there's not as many out there as people think anymore. I hope all comic cards become a major trading community just like comics.

[@raleighcomicbookcollector]

That Haunted Thrills #6 looks sooooo good on your wall Mickey.

[@patricksullivan9256]

some of the card grading companies aren't as vigilant in detecting trimming as you might think. That and cleaning/pressing cards continued to make advancments and become better known.

[@Mountainrock70]

I do have a baseball card collection and many other vintage cards. I find cards pale in comparison to comic books. Just my opinion and 10 cents.

[@terraxcell]

I don’t even know where to start on marvel cards. I know they had a set a few years ago with actual Spiderman comic cuts. Stuff like that would get me collecting just like they do with the autographs and relics on sports

[@kking2484]

Found two #34 this weekend for $20.

[@lemonand]

Ship your comic to the UK and I'll buy one :)

[@brandonmetro7115]

sounds expensive to be a spider-man fan. The only P.C book of spider-man I like is the punisher 1st appearance. Hulk and Spider-Man are one of my favorite team-ups (strength and agility maxed)... but still could be beat by Domino and Cable together.

[@angelvalle9963]

Marvel first covers cards 💪💪💪

[@marklaudenschlager4207]

What are your thoughts on the 1979 wimpy marvel cards?

[@alberteinstein8546]

Usually if they already made a video about it its to late to get a good deal. Better just to wait for a couple months or a year to buy

[@The9.9Newsstand]

If it is just a spike, then maybe there are lower prices on the other side of it. Smart perspective. I’ll be picking my cards wisely. And watching closely. I think high-grade supply is going to be the determining factor here. And the big unknown.

[@Jcarroz]

Whelp as long as the series 2 marvel cards from the 90s doesn’t explode since I have been selling them on the cheap for the last few months…

[@djmoonchild01]

Its not a fad because they are the very first marvel cards and they came out only a couple years after most characters were introduced. They are vintage, meaning they have the real long term value, unlike modern cards with a million variants. Its really bizzar to me that people spend hundreds and even thousands on modern but largely scoff at the original vintage cards, its really baffling.

[@djmoonchild01]

I'v got a box of graded 66 donruss, lmk if you want em! Open to package deal.

[@zombieprophet648]

its prob because of Marvel's chrome cards that came out.

[@sade281]

It’s just FOMO !!!! It will fade don’t get all crazy !!! If u into that I guess go for it!! But who’s really into it I never even heard of the cards !!

[@The9.9Newsstand]

I did say this at the end of this video. I won’t say that it is “just” fomo, but there is certainly fomo at play. it’s very important here for people to be honest with themselves and wise with any purchasing decisions they make. we don’t know what’s going to happen. Hope all is well!

[@tophergrailz1167]

Guess I just fomo'd lol. Bought me the 1966 DonRuss #6 and #34 Spider-Man psa. Hella low Pop. Didn't even know of these. Thanks for introduction. Might even get a few more first from that group. Really wanted 34 in psa 8. But 6 works. Highest listed. And was clean

[@The9.9Newsstand]

@@tophergrailz1167 haha love that!! Congrats on the dope pick ups, my friend. Nice looking, clean card 6 and card 34 is a great place to be! I have a feeling those PSA 8s will make their way into your collection too, but a PSA 6 of card 34 is solid and easily get snatched up. And card 6 is still under the radar… Lots of fun to have yet! Thanks for sharing!

[@jimmyhayes6017]

This is a very logical end game. When everyone only cares about the cover or how cool the art is why even buy a comic? That’s the main reason people don’t like the cover shenanigans in the industry. If you’re not reading the comic why not just collect art? Bye bye stories

[@ObsessedCollector]
