Authentic original signature. We have multiple signed copies available all obtained directly through the Red Tour VIP package and from her merchandise stand which included a number of pieces of memorabilia, the signed cd being one of them. No actual cd or case is included you are buying just the signed cover. Because we have more than one autographed cd the one you receive may not be the exact one pictured since every signature differs slightly. They are all guaranteed to be hand signed by America's sweetheart Ms. Taylor Swift!
