signed copies
Author-touched book versions
Signed copies are books or other items bearing the author's or artist's handwritten signature, typically on the title page.
They command higher prices than unsigned versions and are sought by collectors: The bookstore had signed copies of her new novel.
A signed copy may include a personalized inscription or just the signature alone.
