That is the most ridiculously neatly trimmed beard stubble I have ever seen.
Nice pink sports coat too...
It's actually drawn on with a sharpie that is almost out of ink lol. My 3yr old cousin drew on a beard with a sharpie that was more realistic looking than this guy's beard.
I was wondering if this comment would be made.
Check out fat joe if you like this
Metrosexual 😂
The nerd expert is always great. Really well adjusted and always surprising the heck out of people who aren’t aware how passionate people are about these sorts of hobbies.
Those pegs in between the comics that are pressing on them is driving me nuts
I think they are magnets.
@@thesunreport yeah, they look like magnets.
I missed those lovely comics of the silver & golden of comics..i envy the collection. Wished i had mine still..my late great Dad used to buy me comics on a weekly basis...missed him as he will always be my Stan the 'Dad' Lee.
All those comic books... none of them are in plastic sleeves.
I'm sure they took them out for show purposes. He's got them pinned to the board with magnets. That being said, the guy really should have them all graded and put into cases.
They are bagged. If you look at the stacks on the table, they are all bagged with boards. They must have taken the selections to show out of bags to avoid the light reflecting from the bags. Every book that doesn't have the cover visible is bagged.
@@TheRmm1976 Exactly. If I owned those comics I would get every one of them profesionally graded by CGC. It would cost a bit, but would probably increase their value by at least 25% when he goes to sell. Most of them, at a glance, are probably around 7.0 condition. Amazing, given their age and the fact that he bought them as a kid and probably read them several times.
@@douglaswilliams6834 I actually read all those comics myself, once upon a long ago when they first came out :) Memories!!
@@douglaswilliams6834 wouldn't make sense to grade every single one because its pricey and not every book on the table is worth it most of the wall books hanging on the wall are though.
I was an official " marvel maniac" when I was a teenager back in the 1960's... I loved marvel and read stan soapbox each month. Oh the varied emotions when new issues , new characters and crossovers happened.even the smell of the new book.
Really enjoyed this one. Love seeing original owner collections. Get those babies in bags and boards now. Great video.
@Mechanical Medic I have a subscription to go collect. I use that to price the big key issues. That is where the bulk of your value is going to come from. Have an idea of condition of the books, how many there are and titles. Usually the expensive books are going to drive the price of the collection. Some of the bulk or inexpensive books will be negotiated after you work the price of the big books. Let me know if you need help identifying any of the keys and if you want advice on prices. I can help give you an idea if you are working with a $1,000, $5,000, $10,000 or $100,000 collection.
@Mechanical Medic Comment on one of my videos your email and I'll contact you if you want more advice. I would be happy to help and can be impartial for you.
Nice to see comics displayed on an Antiques Roadshow. Great selection of comics and all look in pretty decent condition to me.
I would say most are in VF/NM
I came here to learn about rare Marvel Comics - I left knowing everyone here dislikes a guys beard.
There is a LOT of hidden beard envy on this board!!
because the age range here is probably between 12-19... just saying
right
Beard or 3-4 day growth?
@@CarbiesChronicles maturity level 12-19. Age 35 and up
"You can't make that into a $100,000 comic?"
"No, my superpowers pertain strictly to facial hair."
1969 called GiJoe wants his beard back
ROFL 😆
His beard is amazing, isn't it? Quite impressive. We are all jealous. lol
judge a Man's beard la the must gay thing ever
Buhahhaah
That looks like a clean FF 48 I’d say he’s low on the 3k estimate
Many first appearances and keys here. Awesome silver age collection.
Usually collections like this get thrown out by people’s mothers when they move out of the house. I’m glad this guy’s collection survived.😁👍
My dad's golden age collection got thrown out by my grandparents when he went in the navy. He said he had a lot of amazing Superman, Captain America, batman etc...
I had boxes of baseball cards, sorts illustrated and comic books from the 60's and early 70's that got given away when I left for service. I came back about 9 months later to nothing. It still bothers me to this day.
I had a collection of Hot Wheels cars and quite a few HO train sets also that went missing.
Was saving them for my son...someday.
Mothers.The bane of collectors the world over. :)
I didn’t really think of it as an investment , now this person right here , I have nothing but the upmost respect for him, he new that these storulys were something special , Marvelous!
As a young Man on Toy Hunter He had the same passion for Toys….poor guy is taking some flak here that he doesn’t deserve on this post so I wanted to give him some kudos and say that there are plenty of us Nerds watching that appreciate that passion. I have most of these books and the prices may be a tiny bit overstated for the time but they have proven to be a good investment over time no matter what. Many of us collectors really aren’t solely focused on flipping…it’s more about enjoying the Hobby and reliving our childhood. I remember trading comics in the early 70s and wishing there was a way to protect my “stack” bc I walked around with my favs when heading to a trade session. We’ve come a long way and who’d have ever guessed at the value several decades later. It’s would’ve been mind blowing to our kid minds.
I grew up on these comic books as a kid in the 50's and 60's part of my child hood for sure
Get those pressed. Amazing video. He bought those as a kid and held them.
This book you have right here is just on absolute fire right now, I mean truly amazing, one of a kind. In an auction setting you should easily get 4 to 800 dollars.
😂😂😂😂
Lol I was thinking the same thing.
If I had the money, I would buy them! I want to read them all.
It looks like a book fair that always goes to my school every year
If this was Pawn Stars Chum would give you face value
and then spend the next 3 hours reading them
I wish we could've gotten a close up on the black panther comic. It looked so good from far away. I wonder what a 9.8 grade looks like compared to it.
Well it would basically be brand new. 9.8 would likely only go to anything that was purchased, immediately placed in a sleeve or 2, and kept safe for the same amount of time as these. 10.0 grades essentially don't exist
To me these all look around upper mid level but it's hard to tell from just this video. I have most of these in the 5.0 range except those 2 black panther appearances. Those both I have I have around 3.0. And not great looking 3s at that. I think a nice mid grade can present extremely well, especially in mylar or in a cgc case.
His love for this treasure trove is great.What one lucky person to save his childhood ❤ interests with him all these years.!!!
*Rick from Pawn Stars* = "I'll give you $30.00 plus a toothpick and drying machine lint for the whole collection....I'm the one that has to take it to auction and do all the work here!!"
Which is why you don't take comic books to a pawn shop. If they are truly valuable, send them to Heritage Auctions. It may take a while, but you get a legit price.
I have to put it in a frame, it'll take up space in my shop.
This makes me so glad I started collecting comics
What the appraiser failed to mention is that if the comics were sent to a professional comic book dry cleaner/presser and then submitted to a grading service like CGC that his collection could be worth a LOT more what the appraiser quoted.
They didn’t say it in the video but this was filmed in 2016 when prices were much lower.
Great video. Back in the day, we bought comics because we loved them, NOT to press, slab and sell....
the way memorabilia and collections are going for, are you surprised the hobby has turn into a business?
@@metsrus I am not. I just can't seem to go down that road.
You also had jobs that paid you enough to survive. I wish I could live in your times when you didn't have to worry about paying rent or putting food on the table.
@@jumpmaninspired In 1983 I starved because I couldn't make enough to survive. Finally got there, but when I started out in Radio it was difficult. I worred a lot.
He might not be able to increase the value of comics but he does have the greatest beard of all time, of all time!
i would my eat my left foot for all those comics...what a wonderful collection....
That is awesome 🤙🏼
And that's why I want a time machine 🤣👍🏻
He worked with Jordan Hembrough. This guy knows his toys as well.
Incredible condition on these books!!!
When Fred Flintstone took a gig as an Appraiser.
"When I was a child, I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child. But when I grew up, I put away childish things." It put those things in a box and when Antiques Road Show came to town, I turned back into a child............with MONEY!!! Good for him!!
Those comics would have worth a lot more if they were kept in a comic sleeve. I noticed a lot of damages.
I saw the comments before the vid and thought "his beard can't be all that bad"... then watched the vid.... I stand corrected.
Someone has lowered the Opacity on this mans beard.
Not sure anyone commenting here remembers a show on Travel Channel called "The Toy Hunter" (starring toy collectibles dealer Jordan Hembrough), but the appraiser here - Travis Landry - appeared on the show: first as a seller of items to Jordan and then as a sort of junior dealer. This was about seven or so years ago and Travis looked nothing then like he does now.
Unbagged and in great condition? This guy must have taken care of these books before he knew how valuable they would be.
Looking at heritage prices, a 9.8 of FF52 sold for $83,650 in February of 2016. But then in November of the same year, another one sold for $65,725. So, who knows, maybe you could get six figures for one now.
I had at least this many comics from this period. Maybe twice as many. And when i was 13 or 14 we packed up a Uhaul truck and moved. And some how my big box of comics didn't end up on the truck. They got left behind for the man who bought the house. And now they would've been worth as much as the man bought our house for.
Those comics are only worth what they are because they are in absolutely phenomenal condition. The vast, VAST majority of books from that era are worth a faction of that because kids read them, left them lying around, traded them, etc. For instance, current GPA (a price guide that records sold prices from a number of different sites) on a Fantastic Four #48 in 9.2 is $6000-$7000. However, GPA on a "very good" (4.0) copy, which is around what most "found" copies would be (assuming no coupons were cut out), is around $800. That's just one example. Anyway, the fact that he basically bought them and stuck them aside is both incredibly rare (and awesome) and THE reason the collection got featured on Antiques Roadshow.
Wow that sucks! I'm sorry man, that must really hurt. I have a lot more than this collection but I've acquired it over several years of collecting as an adult. My og collection was mostly 80s and 90s.
@ Patrick these only look like mid grade book's to me probably averaging in the 5.0 to maybe 7.0 range.
That guy knew what these were worth before going on the show. It's not like you need a professional appraiser to find comic book values.
actually there is only one company that does pricing for comics and that is Overstreet comic price guide. i am surprised Beckett never got into pricing for comics.
@ Charles no there are many more ways to check comic values. Go collect for example. Overstreet guide is usually way lower than fmv.
Gr8 Marvel showcase of comics... They are 2sweet!!!👍💕🔥💯
The appraiser what he’s not telling him is , if those comics are graded with current condition , it’ll be worth easily Times 5+ of what he just said
I think a lot of people are under the impression that old comics are goldmines, but in reality like 1/1000 are good hits. The rest are $1 junk. My dad has like 10 boxes from the 60s-80s and I think the best comics he had none of them went over $1000.
OMG I can't ever see how this to my dad. He had the original run of Spider-Man comics from #15 Amazing Fantasy all the way to an The Amazing Spider-man issue from late 1971. Then he went to college and left the collection in his parent's basement in SF. When they moved to a smaller house the box "got lost".
Its the work of the Five Fingered Fandango!
I bet these comics are worth more than the appraiser is letting on. The guy should def get them appropriately graded.
Idk are these higher than 7.5s?
@@glycineairman Looks like some of them they may be. I can tell a little wear on the spine of some of them though with a little whitening.
@@stevenwaeyen9251 Appealing to authority isn't going to win you any prizes.
The value on many of these silver age comics go up and down like the stock market, Travis (the appraiser) was probably pretty accurate for that year. The Fantastic Four 48 was topping out at 4 or 5 thousand for mid grade during the pandemic but they are coming back down now. I actually just bought one from Travis company today for 2 k that's why I was googling. He knows his stuff. The appraisers can't make deals w people on the program anyway, there are rules about that. Years later I think they can, but I know they have strict rules at Roadshow about it.
nice spray on beard
That’s the guy from the toy hunter tv show he was Jordans apprentice 😂
Brilliant 🤩👍
Get that collection to CGC MEOW
I just knew I should have held onto Spiderman #1 and Superman #1 :P
what what a sweet haul!
I have most of those and quite a few bigger keys but I didn't have any really big keys from my youth. I think the biggest keys from my og collection are 2 complete sets of NM secret wars, Wolverine mini series, Venom and Carnage first app and new teen titans 2.
Man I wish I would have gone after silver age when I was younger. As now I don't know if I'll ever get a FF1,AF 15, hulk 1 etc.
I do wish this guy would get some bags and boards on these books. It makes me anxious just seeing these beauties in a big open environment like this unprotected. Then again he's kept them in good shape all these years.
My brother had two Papa Bear chairs without footstools. Before we arrived at the auction I was hoping to get between $500 and a thousand. They sold for over $11,000
He needs to get those graded to CGC
Oh I collected all this gold when I was a kid. I wonder if it's worth anything today.
just couple of houses in Florida
He acted like that first balck panter was action comics #1 then was like it's about $800 😅🤣
Yeah...!😂
I mean Black Panther is pretty cool
I've told this story a few times. And everyone is skeptical, but I was at a thrift store here in Tampa about 3 years ago. On the shelf in mint condition, in sleeves, TWO ungraded first appearance of Thor!! $20 EACH! but I only had $20 and no cellphone, I forgot it at home. About an hour later, I used a friend's phone to research them, then my heart dropped, and I sped all the way back to the life's treasures thrift store, but it was too late. They were gone. I'll probably never fully recover from that. $100,000 would have changed my life!
This isn’t true at all. That collection is *WAY* above 40k
Edit: LOL I was right. The comic market is going CRAZY!!!!
I'm not doubting you, but I think I'd have to side with the expert who has been doing this for years.
Ty Soro No, trust me, Sir Puss is THE expert
$43,297.58 to be exact.
Answer is, it’s worth what someone is willing to pay.
He over valued some of them, that Avengers 11 in that condition is not worth 300-400, more like 150-200, it's only a FN at best. I don't like the way they're holding them up with those magnets either, they could do slight damage to them.
Interesting. Im checking for comics now lol.
Cool collection
I always get excited at the beginning of these types of items then go out really disappointed with the valuations. If I were that guy I'd just keep them if he didn't really need the money.
It's tough because it is unlikely my kids will want any of this old, presently collectible stuff I have laying around and the market is hot for it now. I can keep a few things, sell it off, and then at least have some satisfaction I'm keeping some more money in the family instead of a box of my own nostalgia.
Yeah, the investment. I was ticked when comics went from 12 cents to 15! Damned inflation!
I own a copy of Fantastic Four #52 (first appearance of Black Panther). It’s the holy grail of my collection.
I do too, but I was being cheap and got a cgc 3.0 and wish I would have gone for at least a 5.0 but they've gone up too much since I got it and I really don't want to spend the money.
Amazing collection!!?
Why aren’t these bagged and boardeddd😿😿
"the first appearance of Medusa! an inhuman!"
*audible cricket noises
Cool video, amazing comics!
#AcCollection
Did these books end up hitting the market or stayed with the original owner?
Get em graded they worth even more
Btw, fyi to the young appraiser here , it makes for better TV drama if you give the values from lowest to highest. Your welcome.:)
*EXCELSIOR!!!* 😃
I once owned a 1st ed. #1 Giant Size X-Men near mint comic for which I paid .50cents. I sold it before there was even talk of the first X-Men movie for $100. I really don't know if I did either good or bad.
You did bad.
I sold mine to. In '95
Dont feel bad about getting paid for one of the few silver age comics worth $ back then.
There’s a Thor 112 sitting there too. Hot Thor vs Hulk book worth a pretty penny in good condition.
That fantastic four 48 is waaaaaay more valuable than any one he mentioned. In that condition it’s probably at least $2000
I had most of those silver age comics in fine to very fine, I was stupid to sell them off for a lot less =( wish I could turn back time.
Wish you could find a way?
I had comics people wouldn't give me 10$ for in the mid 90's.
And I kept them.
GotG turned a bunch of 10$ things into 1000$ issues. Even I did sell all my xmen/Spiderman before the boom.
Imagine having to wait 40+ years for Spiderwoman to get over 5$
Everyone please! That’s not a beard, he just got done eating a whole mess of cinnamon.
They are in amazing condition but to not have them in bags with backer boards is sad. I would day they are in a 7.0 to 8.0 condition. They are just rubbing over each other and back then the ink from the color pages and the interior rubbed off on each other.
He put PINS into these rare books! Crazy
they are magnets
The appraisers beard looks like it’s painted on its so thick.
It's not that he has grown a clearly offensive beard that is the problem, it's that his whole body is covered the same and he's just shaved the correct parts off to appear civilised and human.
Wow: Thats a very nice collection
Also Wow: Travis' haircut and beard are grade A
Tea’Challa??? You mean T’Challa.
Thank you. Surprised I had to scroll this far to see this comment.
Doug Reibling Nomore the submarine er
Who goes into their barber and says, "Gimme the perma 5 o'clock shadow. Its super hipster fabulous!"
The beard on the assessor is just wrong.
No.
@@te9591 You've got the same beard.
Douche.
@@freepeacesweet.7547 no, I don't. You're the douche bag here.
It looks so fake. So bad
he should grow it out and have a biker channel
I guess we're in the Golden Age of the Sharpie-beard?
Now because of the collecting boom if he got those comics graded he would double the appraisal easily.
How much is that beard valued at?
So whats this guys address, and when his collection goes missing all of you have to swear I was somewhere else at the time.
Keep dreaming....
I need a time stone to travel back to the past.
Anything better than an 8 is just more frosting on the cake.
Hollywood hogan would approve of that beard
Omg!!!! No comics bagged or boarded....AHHHHHH!
I have the biggest unknown collection of Fine to nr mint silver age books around. Anyone want to buy them? All the number ones. 1956 thru 1965....It's unreal... 2000 books..
If he got those professionally pressed and grade, he'd easily have 100k worth of books.
LMFAO that 'beard'!!
"If this was something else, it would be worth $100K!"
The guy that brought the comics there, don’t know anything about those comics. He definitely found them or something. I have a ton of comics I haven’t read them in years and I still remember all of them.
Are you in your late 60s or early 70s? Has 50 plus years passed and is your memory failing you do to older age?
All he has to do is get the black panther book Cgc rated and boom. Price raised
