is this 45 rpm song worth anything?

[wenabre]

I know this is not a Disney item but maybe somebody can help me. I have a 45 RPM recording of 'My Daddy is President', sung by Little Jo ann on a KAPP label. It also has the song Macaroni(Caroline's Pony) on the flip side. I have had this since I was a child and someone once told me it was worth something as this 45 was supposedly pulled off the shelves after the President's death. I don't know if this is true, but I am unable to find out where to look.
If anyone could help me I would appreciate it, Thank you.

Hmmm, I know that older 45s are becoming more and more collectible. I don't know any specifics on the one that you listed though.

Anyone else out there know about this subject?

Hello,

The record you asked about charted on Billboard "Hot 100"on July 7 of 1962. It was by Jo Ann Morse, who was seven years old at the time, the same age as Disneyland! (How about that for keeping on topic?)

After five weeks on the Billboard chart it was gone, having reached a high position of # 67. By the time John F. Kennedy was killed, it was probably hard to find a copy in a retail store.

My 1994 "Whitburn" reference lists a value of $9.00. Although obscure, not a particularly sought after record. You just have to find the collector who is looking for it!
