1960 Nu-Card Baseball Hi-Lites Checklist & Prices
This 72-card set of large (3-1/4" x 5-3/8") cards called 'Hi-Lites'
were issued by Nu-Card, Inc. Printed in red and black, the card
fronts resembled a newspaper front page headline with photo.
The backs had trivia questions with answer and also sent you to
another card with more info.
Cards #1-#18 can also be found with just black printing and blank-backed.
They are quite rare ! The last time I checked, out of (200) 1960
Nu-Cards on eBay, NONE were the black only variations !
Other than #1 Ruth, black only cards are nearly identical
differing only in print color and copyright.
The black only cards had a "CVC" copyright while the regular
black/red issue was "NCI" (Nu-Card Inc.).

Baseball card collecting terms (part D-F)
Die-Cut A special card that differs from a basic card by
"Die-Cutting", cutting away portions of the card to create a special design.
Most are serially numbered & limited.
Error Card Baseball card history is filled with error cards,
many of them very interesting. Hank Aaron is on 2 of my favorite error cards.
Aaron's 1956 Topps card action photo shows Aaron sliding home but
it is actually Willie Mays not Aaron. Topps again goofed on Aaron's 1957
"reversed negative" card showing Aaron batting left-handed.
"Error Cards" are usually found early in print runs and often corrected.
When this correction happens a VARIATION is created.
Some variations are extremely interesting and very expensive while others
are totally boring and you wonder why they were even made.
Extended Set Also frequently called Update Set or
Traded Set.
They are sets issued after the original release to update the regular set
with new and traded players.
Facsimile Autograph is an autograph printed on a card to show
what the player's actual signature looks like. They are not "real" autographs.
Factory Set are complete sets usually in special boxes
produced by the manufacturer. "Hand-Collated Sets" are sets collectors
have put together card by card from packs.
