Hi Joe,
This is interesting to me. By "surface", do you mean cards offered for sale?
I'm only aware of 2 examples of the Ewing/Mascot PL being offered for public sale, those being 6 years apart at REA (2007 and 2013). The 2007 example was later cracked out of the SGC slab and offered raw on eBay in 2012. The 2013 example (mine above) was previously in an SGC 30 holder and was for sale on eBay before REA, but the card was regraded and bumped to a 40. Maybe all of this activity leads to a perception that there are more of these out there than there really are? Or maybe you know about transactions I am unaware of?
On the other hand, over that same timeframe I know of 4 different Wright NL cards sold at auction.
If by "surface" you refer to cards held in private collections, I have no idea and you would have more knowledge of that than I do.
Cheers,
Blair
