Harry S Truman Autograph

My mother graduated from William Chrisman High school in 1955. Harry S Truman spoke at graduation. He signed her graduation exercises paper that the school gave out that night. I was wondering if it's worth anything?

Harry S Truman Autograph
by: Bill

William Chrisman High is located in Harry Truman's hometown. There is also a Harry S. Truman High in Independence.

It's great that your mother got the autograph on her graduation program. All presidential autographs are valuable, and Harry S. Truman is one of the more collectible of modern presidents because he has become somewhat of a folk hero and some historians are now ranking him among the best presidents in U.S. history (at one point during his presidency his approval rankings were lower than Nixon's lowest).

A Harry S. Truman autograph that was not signed during his eight years as president is worth in the $125 - $150 range. It might be worth more than that because of the Independence connection. How much more could only be determined by putting it up for sale in an auction format.
