FWIW, discussion around the Collins “Yellow Elephant” first started sometime in early 2012 after I won an example in a major auction house that now resides in a SGC 60/5 holder.
I made a thread soon after outlining my thoughts and to my surprise a few other examples surfaced – simply Google “T205 Yellow Elephant Net54” to see the thread that I am referencing.
Although this oddity is technically not recognized by any of the hobby publications or TPGs, I do feel that the argument could be made in the long run. Either way, I'm happy to see this card starting to get the recognition it deserves.

Turner, So glad you could respond. I hope you and your pops are doing well my friend. I wasn't super sure of the year but I do remember the conversation took place when I discussed the Graham Blue and Black sigs with you. I was super excited to see something new that was in plain sight for over 100 years. Lol. I believe between you and I there has been several new variations pointed out in the T205 set. Can't wait to see what else gets shaken from the Tree of 205's.
