This set of chocolate-related stickers are nearly identical to the Chocolates Guillen cards also included in this site. As stated in the card listing, the information provided is fairly bizarre. It is not because of the “crude” drawling as those seem in line with c.1930’s paleoart but rather because many of the stickers are so blatantly mislabeled. For examples, you have a bipedal, herbivorous dinosaur (i.e., Iguanodon) labeled as a Pterodactyl and then there are two obvious dinosaur cards (i.e., Triceratops and Stegosaurus) which are both labeled as mastodons. Poor editing? Language barrier? Who knows, but it is fairly certain that whoever put these together was not a “dinosaur fan”.
