The earliest other card is Aerodactyl 1/62 in Fossil (1999). That card is named Aerodactyl, while this one is M Aerodactyl-EX. That card lists 60 HP, and this one lists 210 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Promo. Kagemaru Himeno illustrated that card, and 5ban Graphics illustrated this one.

I keep a set binder for XY Black Star Promos, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the XY Black Star Promos set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Aerodactyl can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Fossil Pokémon. I still need this card.
