But the Mantle is a triple print, and the stream of those making auction appearances (especially with new PSA holders) seems endless. In the '90's, someone estimated the existing number of examples at 15,000. I would say that number is significantly conservative.
And not to puncture your balloon, but the Jackie Robinson is not his rookie, with several 1947 issues predating it (the 1947 Bond Bread Exhibit seems especially elusive and difficult to acquire).
I believe they will all appreciate in value, with the only question being how much in comparison to other cards the same money could have gone into.
Good luck with them,
