signed edition
Personally autographed book
A signed edition is a copy of a book that bears the author's signature, typically on the title page.
Publishers sometimes issue special signed editions at release, or authors sign copies at bookstore events.
Signed editions command higher prices among collectors, especially when limited in number or accompanied by an inscription: I found a signed edition at the estate sale.
