This is a high grade 1960 Nu Card baseball Hi-Lites complete set of (72) cards. The 1960 Nu-Card Baseball Hi-Lites set was a unique baseball set with the format appearing as a newspaper headline, photo and story of some of Major League Baseball's great moments in history. These oversized cards measure 3-1/4" by 5-3/8" and are printed in black-and-white with the headlines written on bold red. At the top of each card is the card number, "Baseball Hi-Lites" title (printed in black and red) and the "Extra" caption as well as the date of when this particular event occurred in baseball lore. The centered photos are in black-and-white and a synopsis of the original story is printed below. The backs feature a baseball quiz. Card #1-18 that are printed only in black on the fronts are considered more valuable and are designated as 1960 CVC Baseball Hi-Lites. This is a very high grade collection. As typical with these cards, there is some discoloration on the backs from the paper stock that was used for this set.
