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 A)

Airbrushing is the art of touching up a photo prior to the card being printed. It was generally done to remove imperfections or update or hide a players jersey/cap logo. Because of advancements in print technology and computers this is no longer needed.

All-Star card (AS) usually a subset card picturing a player who participated in the previous season’s all-star game. Topps created these in their 1958 High Number issue and has continued the practice fairly regularly to date. Such cards are usually designated in price guides with the abbreviation of AS.

Assorted A general mix of cards often containing many duplicates.

Auction items are sold to the highest bidder. Auctions used to be live or thru the mail/phone but today most auctions are online.

Auction Catalog lists the rules and descriptions and often images of the items in an auction.

Authentication verification that an item (card, autograph) is genuine. Most "game-used" material inserts have a written declaration of authenticity on the reverse.
