Seaver’s is a pain to find (by Topps standards, there is no such thing as a rare basic Topps card).

True. I shouldn’t have said “rarity”. Neither card is difficult to find today if you’ve got the coin. (Neither is a ‘52 Topps Mantle for that matter…) We've gone from the idea of "rare" meaning a card you literally could not find at a show in say the late 70's, to it simply meaning price prohibitive. Hell, is there a card you can't have within a week in 2021 if money is no object? Maybe a Wagner. I digress...
Seavers particularly in high grade seem to abound on eBay in the last few years. But certainly when these cards were coming out of packs 50+ years ago, the Ryan would have been an easier pull.
