This wonderful set of cards was illustrated by David Marrs with additions by a select group of other artists. There are at least three different versions of this set including the following:
 
    • UV Finish – 80 cards with a glossy finish
    • Flat Finish (this set) – 50 cards with a non-glossy finish
    • Spanish - 80 cards with a non-glossy finish
 
Based on the packaging of the cards and information contained in the collectors album, this set was intended to be the first series with a second series to follow which apparently never come to fruition. The evidence supporting this is the use of 'Series 1' on the packaging and album. In addition, the 'Headset' cards and associated Headset stickers only include Saurischia (meaning “lizard-hipped”) dinosaurs including Theropods (bipedal, carnivorous dinosaurs) and Sauropods (quadrupedal, herbivorous dinosaurs). It seems clear that the second series 'Headset' would have focused on the Ornithischia (meaning “bird-hipped”) which include the armored dinosaurs (e.g., Stegosaurus, Ankylosaurus). As evidence of this, there is a statement in the inside cover of the album associated with the Headset family tree stating, '20 additional cards in Series 2 Watch out for it!'.
 
The front and back covers of the album are identical. The inside pages are generic (low quality) side-loading, nine-pocket plastic pages. The inside-front cover has a fold-out 'Headset' Family Tree on which the owner could stick circular stickers featuring the heads of various dinosaurs.
