Not many people who work with animals get their own set of trading cards. But Steve Irwin wasn’t like many people. Known better as the Crocodile Hunter, Irwin used his charisma and catchphrases to become a household name around the world. Not only did Hollywood come calling with a (truly bizarre) feature film, but he was also the subject of a set of cards at the height of his popularity. 2002 Dart FlipCards Crocodile Hunter Autographs include a pair of signatures: Steve Irwin and his wife and co-host, Terri Irwin.
Both of the cards are limited to 450 copies and are signed on-card. Steve Irwin is shown with a croc while Terri is pictured in a softer close-up shot.
Autographs combine with Danger-Ware memorabilia cards to land 1:36 packs, or one per box.
When the set first came out, the 2002 Dart FlipCards Crocodile Hunter Autographs slipped under the radar. There was always a market for Steve’s signature, but the set’s popularity didn’t really take off until immediately after Irwin’s untimely death in September, 2006 as a result of a stingray accident.
