I'm assuming by "folio-style", you mean like the one that Starflight 1 came in: http://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/starflight/ … ameCoverId,136/
Starflight was the first store-bought PC game I ever owned, and has remained one of my most favorite video games of all time. I got it for Christmas around the end of 1986 I think. I still have the game boxes and accompanying materials (manuals, disks, maps, code wheel, etc.) for both Starflight games 😀
Interestingly, the box for Starflight 2 was rather similar to the modern Wal-Mart-sized boxes of today. It was a bit larger though. The box had a front flap that was meant as the primary means of opening it, whereas modern boxes tend to have purely external front flaps that serve no purpose other than to double the box's self-advertising real-estate.
