Does anyone know which of the 3 Elephant Tableaux this one is?

Bode built this one for the 1906 Sells-Floto outfit. Don't forget the previous and larger one for Carl Hagenbeck in 1905 and the carvings assembled into a third on Al G. Barnes for 1922. This Sells-Floto piece is preserved at the Ringling Museum in Sarasota, FL.

The Al G. Barnes tableau is in the Circus World Museum collection.
