Not the original error variation, but the other on the sheet topps tried to match the initial yellow tiger as evident by the missing red on the throat.

So is one card on the sheet always
more/less affected than the other?

One card is always missing it, then it was corrected


One card has the red area around the logo stoned off the mask, and you can see the peeking evident by the greenish tinted of the throat. This is the only one with varying degrees of missing red, the other is always absent with NO pixels missing from the throat

All these are the initial error

Going back to my original question: Has anyone seen a PSA graded card with "Yellow Tiger" on the flip? They list one (3.5) in their pop report.

I have not seen one. I don’t collect graded cards but do add any variations listed by SCD, Becket or the Registry to my sets, so try to keep up on any new additions by PSA to it’s master set checklists.

In the meantime I collect any interesting recurring print differences, like this one, intended or not by the manufacturer . But since Lemke’s retirement and passing I know of no official, consistent or effective way to get new variations considered or recognized officially by the hobby

[Republicaninmass]

Since there is only one, no I have not seen "it", nor do I know who was able to get then to recognize it, or who submitted it.

So it remains, yet another mystery, for now.... So many mysteries, so little time.
