What is the term for the cards at the bottom of the play field that give the game pricing and basic game instructions? Where can you get copies of the originals? Specifically looking for STTNG.

Why are the called score cards? They usually show the price and instructions. Did they used to have a high scores written there before games recorded them?

I think because they indicated the various rules to obtain specific scoring, and often had replay values on them.
