Sefer Zohar al Bereshit, the Chid"a Edition with His Foreword, Livorno (1791)

An edition edited per the Chid"a in his lifetime when he lived in Livorno, with a foreword and postface by him and with many glosses by him, a precise edition of Sefer HaZohar with additions. At the beginning of the first part, the Chid"a wrote a foreword in which he writes that he added glosses in the book, signing his name Mya"n (Mehatzair Yosef Azulai NR"V). 

The Chid"a also writes about the precision of this edition which was printed per the precise Kushta edition which changed several previous versions and he thanks the proofreaders, noting that he does not accept the words of Rabbi Shalom Buzaglo author of the Mikdash Melech who contested many of the versions there and adding that he knows who the proofreader of the Kushta edition was and why he changed for the better.
