There is a total of four Trading Cards available to find during the Jackson portion of the game.

Waking Up

This Trading Card can be found on the board. Grab if before continuing.

Chessmaster

Look for a ladder just inside the doorway that you can climb to find this collectible.

Oozer

Climb onto this portable building to find this card next to a lawn chair.

This next card is a bit trickier to find. While working to open the main gate for Dina, Ellie will have to toss a power line over the fence and then use it to open up the gate. Before doing this, toss the cord over the roof of the trailer and then climb up the other side. You’ll find a slew of supplies like ammo and alcohol on top of the trailer, as well as a Trading Card that you can grab before moving on.

Downtown

Doctor Uckmann

Check the structure ahead and to the right in this screenshot to find this collectible.

This Easter egg of a collectible can be found just east of the synagogue that you need to enter to continue the main story. Look for a broken-down building that is missing most of the exterior.

Continuing up the stars to the third floor will allow you to find some additional supplies, as well as this Trading Card.

Jump through to enter the room and then look for this card on the ground next to a turned over trash can.

Doctor Stem

Make sure to clear out the nearby infected and WLF before looting!

After reaching the gas station with the WLF patrol, head across the street and enter the bookstore. There are several infected in here, so be careful as you explore, especially if you haven’t taken out the WLF outside. Look for a small hallway that leads into the back area, then turn to the left and look for this Trading Card on top of a book next to a portable record player.

Sergeant Frost

Loot these lockers to find another collectible.

Just down the hill from the gas station you can find the Olive Street Market grocery store. This area is also patrolled by WLF, so move carefully. There are several infected inside the back of the store, so take them out quietly and then look for this Trading Card inside one of the lockers in the back.

Candelabra

Look for this card advertisement next to the ATM in the convenience store the Clicker comes running out of.

Dr. Daniela Star

You'll need to crawl through a small gap to reach this locked storage area.

After dealing with the Shamblers, move through the gate and then down the tunnel. There’s a storage room to the right here that is locked. You can actually crawl through a small opening between the desks on the right, which will give you access to the storage area inside. Look for this Trading Card on the desk, then grab any other materials around you.

Bastet

Crawl through the mud under one of the wrecked train cars to find a compartment inside with some goodies you can collect.

Reverb

Crawl under the bed to find yet another trading card.

Once you reach the area filled with WLF and dogs, make your way around the area and deal with any enemies that get in your way. It’s honestly easier to just take them all out before looting, so we’d recommend that. Whatever you decide, make your way down the street to the end. Look for a house marked 1214, and then head inside and up the stairs. Turn completely around and follow the hallway to a bedroom with a window that overlooks the front yard. This Trading Card is under the bed inside this room.

Finding Strings

The Austringer

Check the car at the bottom of the sinkhole before continuing into the hotel during this flashback.

During the flashback, ride down into the town towards the music shop. The path will be blocked, so you’ll need to go through a nearby hotel.

After grabbing the last collectible, head up the street and look out for a group of apartments on the left side of the road. The front door is locked, but you can actually get inside by crawling through the window to the right. This will put you in the basement area. Head up the stairs and clear the floors for any additional goodies. When you’re ready to grab the card, head up and break the windows to gain access to the locked apartment on the left. There’s a safe in this room as well. Search the drawer on the left-hand side of the bed to find this Trading Card.

Arch-Enemy

Search this desk drawer to find this trading card.

While exploring the Seattle Conference Center, head down into the building by dropping down the scaffolding.

If you look to the left you should be able to spot this Trading Card on the recording equipment work area in the corner.

Tormentra

You'll need to crawl through a door filled with debris to find this collectible.

The next Trading Card can be found after Ellie and Jesse break into a building shortly after leaving the theatre. Pass through the breakroom and then by the bathroom on your right.
