Left end of the bell curve: wow signed first edition of the Illiad is so rare

Middle of the bell curve: haha she's stupid because Homer is from ancient Greece

Right end of the bell curve: wow signed first edition of the Illiad is so rare

(The Illiad as a modern translated work can have multiple editions from an author)

Actual Right End: that's not what you'd refer to as a first edition of The Illiad, unless you're an idiot

I can get you a signed edition of the Bible right now as long as you don’t care which company printed it or who signs it
