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.).

1961 Post Cereal Baseball Checklist & Values


1961 Post Cereal consisted of 200 cards measuring 2-1/2" by 3-1/2". Post distributed the cards (six each) via the back panel of cereal boxes or through the mail where fans could order certain cards as part of a large pre-perforated sheet. The set was loaded with superstars like Mickey Mantle, Hank Aaron, Roberto Clemente and Willie Mays but the key cards turned out to be very scarce short prints like #73 Chuck Estrada and the scarcest #94 Chuck Stobbs.

There cards were issued in 2 different ways ... on the backs of selected boxes of Post Cereal or you could send away and get special 10-card perforated team sets.

Baseball card collecting terms (part H-R)

High Numbers - vintage cards were issued in the ‘50s-‘70s in a series. During the baseball season, the largest number of cards were made. As the schedule progressed into September, when there would be less interest in baseball cards , Topps for one, specifically decreased production and hence much less product was available. As a result, a scarcity-factor was created and a premium holds for these first type of "short-printed" cards.

Inserts - special randomly-inserted cards which are not part of the regular set. Many modern inserts are sequentially-numbered and rarer than the card sets into which they are inserted.

O-Pee-Chee / OPC - a subsidiary of Topps, this card issue was produced specifically for distribution in Canada.

Promotional Card - generally referred to as cards issued to show what the product will look like on release and intended to help spur future sales. Often called a "promo" card.

Reprint - cards issued to reproduce the originals. With the current trend of vintage reprints, the new versions have a distinguishing characteristic evidenced by numbering.

Restored - a card or piece of memorabilia which someone has tried to return to a "like-new" condition. A restored card is considered to be of very little value.

Rookie Card - any league-licensed, widely distributed card to feature a player in his first year of trading cards.
