The effects of postselected von Neumann measurement on nonclassicality of single-photon-added coherent state (SPACS) are studied. Explicit expressions and analytical results of photon statistics including photon number distribution and Mandel 
factor, and the squeezing parameter of the field quadrature of SPACS after postselected von Neumann measurement are investigated. The results showed that the nonclassicality of SPACS after measurement changed dramatically than the initial state. The measurement let SPACS possess more strong sub-Poissonian photon statistics in some definite coupling strength regimes and large weak values, which accompanied by low postselection probabilities.
