Also he is modern superstar in the age of Facebook,Twitter,Youtube and internet which I could see him having more demand than Mantle in 20 years.

Think of Clark Gable. He is the king of Hollywood,but anybody under 40 would rather have Leonardo DiCaprio or Tom Cruise's autograph.
Why? Gable was never part of thier childhood like DiCaprio or Cruise were,similar to how it will be in 20 years when people will remember Tom Brady in the Superbowl and have no memories of the Mick.
If he has more demand than Mantle, he will have 100x the supply.
