Description

2008 Team USA hat, signed by the father-and-son presidents

Unworn white velcro-adjustable baseball cap embroidered with the Olympic rings and "USA, Beijing 2008," signed on the top of the bill in black felt tip by George Bush and George W. Bush. In fine condition. Accompanied by a full letter of authenticity from PSA/DNA. Consignor notes that this originates from the collection of Samuel Sutton, who was President Obama's personal valet, and who worked in such capacity in the White House in both the Obama and Bush administrations. It was not until 2008 that an American president traveled abroad to attend an Olympic Games, when President George W. Bush went with his father to Beijing. The president combined recreation with diplomacy, engaging in talks with Chinese President Hu Jintao when not observing the Olympic festivities. A decidedly unique signed Olympic piece.
