Gordie Howe
Hockey · Detroit Red Wings · Right wing
Howe's cards are driven by his 1950s vintage issues, especially the 1951-52 Parkhurst #66 rookie, which is the most valuable and most sought after. The market for his best cards is thin in recent sold data: the newest graded sale I could confirm for the rookie is from 2021, and I found no recent sold raw or PSA 10 copies of the top vintage cards, so the prices below are mostly graded sales from older auctions or unsold asking listings.
Prices are recent sales we found on Oct 8, 2026 and refresh weekly while people are looking. Check the sold prices before you buy.
