I try to be on top of stuff, but every now and then stuff falls though the cracks. This is especially true with the smaller non-licensed card makers like Leaf and Hits. But recently Leaf sold a bunch of it's pre-production proofs for it's upcoming 25th Anniversary? product. I guess it's just called 25th, but I'll assume it celebrates the 25th anniversary of 1990 Leaf, the first full fledged Leaf set not a Canadian version of Donruss. And the design pays homage to the 1990 set. Other than a tweet and finished eBay listing I can't find anymore information on the set. Not even Leaf's website has it listed and neither Blowoutcards.com and DAcardworld.com have anything listed about the set. The tweet from Leaf says this is due out in December so I guess we'll just have wait and see. But I was able to find all the old listings on eBay and piece together a checklist of what was offered and save the images for posterity. These cards were offered as a buy it now and the Metal cards were priced at $29.99, the Acetate proofs were priced at $24.99 and the Metal Prismatic Gold card was priced at $79.99. Not bad prices for 1/1 cards. A couple of these cards are already back on the market.
Here is the checklist, which will be added to my 2015 checklist and images follow. All cards are 1 of 1's and I'm not sure if they have anything on the backs or a card number associated with them. I have asked a current seller and I'm waiting on an answer. If I find anything out I'll update this post.
Update: Well I heard back from the eBay seller that has a couple of these up right now and they are indeed blank backed. The other news is that Leaf has finally released information on the 2015 Leaf 25th set. Looks like that set will be all autos. 4 cards per pack, 1 pack per box deal. No checklist yet, but I guess we can assume since Robin has pre-production cards he will also be featured in the set, so that means more autos to chase. And from what I can tell all autos will be on card!
