You are bidding on one extremely rare unopened wax box from the 1985 Leaf set, but not necessarily the exact box pictured. 


Similar to O-Pee-Chee for Topps, Leaf was produced as a sister set to Donruss for the Canadian market.  Leaf was a standalone product from 1985 through 1988, with 1989 being a transitory year where the cards were identical, but packaging different.  Starting in 1990, Leaf became the Donruss 'premium' product meant to compete with Upper Deck and eventually Topps Stadium Club & Fleer Ultra. 


Being the inaugural year of Leaf, and given the strong rookie class, 1985 are the rarest and most sought after Leaf wax boxes from this era.


Potential rookie cards / RC's include HOFer Kirby Puckett, Roger Clemens, Dwight Gooden, Darryl Strawberry, Orel Hershiser, and more. Key HOFers include Wade Boggs, Nolan Ryan, Reggie Jackson, Tony Gwynn, Ozzie Smith, Tom Seaver, and more!


The Leaf set only contains 260 cards, compared to 660 for the base Donruss set. Therefore, the average hit rate of rookies and HOFers is higher than a traditional Donruss box. Due to the condition sensitive black borders, high grade PSA 10 HOFer cards sell for a couple hundred dollars to several thousand (i.e. Puckett PSA 10 sold for $7500 at auction).
