That's criteria that Mantle and DiMaggio meet as well.

In 70 years, these will still be a zillion signed Mantle, Dimaggio and Williams items in near mint condition.
Are you really making the argument that someday a signed Mickey Mantle or Ted Williams baseball will sell for $50,000+ like a minty single signed Ruth ball would today? (Adjusted for inflation, it would be a lot more than $50,000.)
