Tomb Raider: Cradle of Life Autographs Gallery and Guide

Remove one card from the equation and the 2003 Inkworks Tomb Raider: Cradle of Life Autographs list is weak. However, any set that features the signature of Angelina Jolie has to carry some serious clout.

Just six people involved with the Lara Croft sequel signed for the set, five actors and Jan de Bont, the film’s director. Inserted 1:36 packs, there should be one in every box.

This marks the second time that Jolie signed for a set of Inkworks Tomb Raider trading cards. The Oscar winner also signed for the company’s Lara Croft: Tomb Raider release in 2001. Jolie is the toughest card to pull in Cradle of Life, but now that boxes have all but dried up, it’s actually not too tough to find on the secondary market. This is likely thanks to the massive value it usually commands.

From here, the quality of signers drops off significantly. Ciaran Hinds and Til Schwiger may have recognizable faces but they’re not exactly Hollywood leads.  Schwiger is the set’s lone redemption.

It’s also worth noting that Simon Yam, who plays Chen Lo in the film, can be found with two different signature styles, English and Chinese.
