1985 Leaf
Description
1985 Leaf is a 264-card set produced by Donruss for the Canadian market. Similar to the O-Pee-Chee sets of the era, Leaf was a Canadian version of the current year's Donruss flagship, but with a smaller set size. Also, like OPC, all cards are in both English and French. 1985 would be the first of a three-year run for Leaf.
The set is heavily slanted towards players from the two Canadian teams and Canadian-born players. Cards #251 and #252 make up the "Canadian Greats" subset and are the only cards in Leaf that weren't also in Donruss.
Distribution
36 packs per box, 12 cards plus three puzzle pieces per pack (MSRP: C$0.35). Distributed in Canada only.
