Yu-Gi-Oh! Wiki

Booster 1 was released on March 1, 1999 as one of the very first Booster Packs in the Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game—preceded only by Vol.1, which was released the month prior. Like all Series 1 sets, Booster 1 cards used the Series 1 card layout, distinguished from later layouts by the lack of a Card Number beneath the card's artwork and the Eye of Anubis Hologram in its lower-right corner. Like the other Booster sets, Booster 1 was distributed via Carddass vending machines.

Five of the cards in this set were reprinted from Vol.1; the other 35 cards were introduced to the OCG in this set, two of which it introduced to the entire franchise. All but 17 of the cards have been reprinted in Japanese, and only 14 of them have been printed in the Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game and 25 have never been printed in the tcg.

Breakdown[]
