Mr. Ito paid $1,200 for for a signed copy of a book. The signature was fake, and the book was worth $50. What is the percent decrease? (free points if you dunno the answer)

Signature: The signer (usually the author) has penned their name on a page in the book, and nothing else. This is also referred to as “flatsigned.”

Inscription: The signer has penned their name along with a personalized phrase or message; for example, “To Elizabeth.” Normal inscriptions, such as those made a book signings, do not add value to signatures – and can even devalue them.

Association Copy: An inscription made out to someone who is closely associated with the author. For example, if Harper Lee made an inscription dedicated to Truman Capote. Association copies are often the most valuable types of signatures, as they’re rarer.

Autopen: An autopen machine signs documents, most notably for U.S. presidents. Autopens are not regarded as real signatures and have no added value

Note that association copies made out by the author to the person the book was dedicated to are even rarer and often more valuable, and are referred to as “dedication copies.”

Signatures can also be found on “bookplates,” which are essentially slips of paper signed by the author and later attached to the book. Bookplates are not as valuable as on-page signatures.
