signed copy
Author-personalized book
A signed copy is a book or other printed work bearing the author's handwritten signature, typically on the title page.
Signed copies command higher prices from collectors and make more personal gifts than unsigned editions.
A signed copy differs from an inscribed copy, which includes a personalized message along with the signature: I found a signed copy of his first novel at a used bookstore.
