autographed = autograph (transparent) = autograph + ed

Standard past-participle/adjectival formation from the verb 'autograph' meaning 'having a signature'.

Etymology

Autographed comes from the Greek parts auto- ('self') and -graph ('write'), so it literally means 'self-written'. So an autographed baseball or photo is one that the person themselves has written or signed, which is why we value it as their own mark.
