My brother was in the army when we went to Haiti. He was tasked to guard Pres Clinton and Pres Aristide.  He got them to sign 3 baseballs for him. One is in a miltary museum, nephew has one and I have one.  Mine reads" To my american friends Lisa and Danny"  Jean Aristide and under that is Pres Clintons signature. I am wondering value for insurance purposes??  Any ideas? Thanks in advance, Danny

What a great memento! It's hard to value something like that, because it's unusual and personalized, but I'd say roughly $200-$350...maybe up to $500 or so for someone who especially valued the Haitian connection and wanted to commemorate the terrible earthquake. Post an image if you want.
I'm sorry i should have eloborated more, i was signed in the 90's when we sent troops down there to quell unrest. Clinton was in office at the time and Aristide was being ferried out of the country.  Has nothing to do with the earthquake
Sorry...Aristide came back after the quake and I wasn't sure if it was during one of Clinton's visits. The 90s weren't on my mind and I had the quake stuck in my head. Value would be higher, since Clinton was president. Perhaps $450-$750 appraisal value or more. Hard to tell.

Gee... I thought i replied to this thread a few days ago and now I don't see a response. ???

 

Anyway, I think the personalization will significantly reduce the market value. I don't think the Aristede signature adds much value either. Plus, what kind of ball is it? An official major league baseball or a ball with a synthetic cover? Usually balls that are not OML Balls are worth much less.

 

My guess is you are looking at $200 - $250 at best. Sorry, but an unpersonalized Bill Clinton single signed ball would be worth far more.

Funny, I saw it the other day.
Just got pictures It 's a TEAM MFG ball that was made for Operation Uphold Democracy for soliders to give out to Haitians.  I will sale please snd offers if interested.

It presents pretty well. Nice that Clinton is on the sweet spot. :-)
