Default 1952 Topps Yellow Tiger House

I noticed that the PSA Pop Report now lists one PSA 3.5 House "Yellow Tiger". I assume they have officially recognized this? If so, does anybody now what constitutes a "yellow tiger", vis-à-vis, A "sorta yellow tiger (partial color loss)"

It is not listed in their Master or Super Set lists.

I also asked this back late last year after I seen an AH list it as such.

Doubtful, although there should be 2 different yellow house designations labeled as such.

Thanks Greg, looks like some red in that HA one though.

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

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

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.

Very interesting. If you try to start a new submission on PSAs website, a yellow tiger house is a possible selection now. I assume they just started labeling it as such.

Interesting. I wonder if they are going to acknowledge the variations within or just lable them all as "Yellow Tigers"?

Default 1952 Frank House PSA yellow tiger

I was the surprise recipient of the 1952 Frank House "yellow tiger" designation from PSA. I sent in the card expecting it to be simply labeled Frank House with no comment on the PSA holder. I did make a note of the yellow tiger when I submitted it, but had no idea idea they would call it a variation from the usual card. i will submit a picture of the card.

That's a nice start. Add it to the master set registry and sell it for a bunch of coin.

I want to see a larger shot of those Spiezio cards. What grades did they get? The three I submitted last year came back as 5, 6 & 6.5.

The three Spiezio's (missing letters variations) in the picture are PSA 7, 6 Stain (wax mark on the front of the card which is visible when tiling the card at the right angle) and PSA 4. I also have two other graded errors and 1 or 2 ungraded Spiezio errors.

I replied in you other thread but thought I'd add here that this is great to see!
Here is mine for comparison. No green on the neck variation.

Very nice card!! I think it will be interesting moving forward to see what cards get the yellow Tiger PSA designation and which ones fall short. Undoubtedly, there will be requests from folks with cards with a hint of yellow hoping to get the designation and raising the value of their cards.

Given the trouble PSA has had distinguishing 1962 green tint cards from their normal counterparts they may be flummoxed by all these different tigers

Maybe they'll label this one I got from Scott Brockelman's table at the Texas Card Show in April? Tiger is yellow except the red tongue. Or maybe they'll create a new variant for this one...

Al,

I a surprised you wouldn't go with the green throat variation - as that seems to be more of a true variation. I think you need to add a 3rd...

And the Yellow Tiger, Frank House card is finally getting some well deserved love.

I haven't been following these (not that a lot ever come up that I'm aware of) but I was real surprised to see where this one ended last night. Have they been going up lately?

I am also unsure, even though nothing was written in the description, since this was the "no green on the neck" version, if that had anything to do with the final price?

Default '52T House - REA

That would have been a nice, quirky '52T variation to add to any collection. But, at that hammer price way out of my league.

I first heard about this variation here on Net54 and was able to find one cheap. Sure glad I did after seeing that one in the REA auction.

Same. I purchased mine a couple years ago before the Yellow Tiger became recognized as a variation with PSA.
I found my card listed with 3 other common Topps cards unlisted as a Yellow Tiger so I chased it and ended up winning it. I wasn't the only one who noticed it as it ended up finishing for what they were currently going for at the time.
Watching REA the other night and purposely watching this card, like you, I was glad I bought mine when I did as well.

Although I have put together a 52 set I am not a graded collector. Anyone know when PSA added the yellow House to it's master 52 checklist ? Also, anyone know why the yellow House is not included in PSA's Super checklist ? And since they include the gray back House in it's master/super checklists, why would they not include the yellow version of each ?

Good questions, Al. Could it be as simple as they haven't gotten around to it yet, or maybe not enough people have asked?

It makes no sense, since they now recognize the Yellow Tiger as a variation, that they wouldn't include it in their super checklist?

I think it has enough yellow to make the cut.

As you can see in this thread, July 2019 is around the time they started recognizing this variation.
Agree with Dale. My guess is that nobody in the Master/Super set registry has made the request to put that card in the registry listing.
