Born on a mountain top in Tennessee Greenest state in the land of the free Raised in the woods so he knew every tree Kilt him a b'ar when he was only three Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the wild frontier Fought single-handed through the Indian war 'Til the creeks was whipped an' peace was in store An' while he was handlin' this risky chore Made himself a legend for evermore Davy, Davy Crockett, the man who don't know fear He went off to Congress an' served a spell Fixin' up the Government an' laws as well Took over Washington so I heard tell An' patched up the crack in the Liberty Bell Davy, Davy Crockett, seein' his duty clear When he come home his politicking was done Why the western march had just begun So he packed his gear an' his trusty gun An' lit out a-grinnin' to follow the sun Davy, Davy Crockett, leadin' the pioneer

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.
