Season in Hell for only $644K

From Forbes.com:

A Season in Hell (Une saison en enfer)
By Arthur Rimbaud, published in Brussels in 1873.

Price: $644,000
A landmark of French poetry inscribed by Rimbaud to his lover and literary mentor Paul Verlaine. One of only three known signed copies.

A little out of my price range, unfortunately, but I'd be glad to trade for my lousy Louise Varese translation.
