''He who has this, has it all.” Sefer Kol Bo. Venice, 1567. Signatures of Italian Sages. - This is an early edition of the sefer, printed during the lifetime of the greatest halachic authorities, the Beis Yosef and the Rema. Venice, 1567 This edition was printed at the press of Giorgio di Cavalli in Venice, one of the first printers to begin printing Hebrew seforim after the burning of Hebrew seforim in Venice in 1553. It features his unique printer’s emblem depicting an elephant with a castle on its back. Beneath the elephant is Cavalli’s motto – in Latin: “Tarde sed tuto” – “slowly but surely”. Unfortunately, Cavalli’s success with Hebrew seforim did not last long, as hundreds of copies of his Hebrew imprints were burned in Venice in 1568, ultimately resulting in the closure of his business. As a result, Hebrew seforim printed by Cavalli are very rare in comparison to other Hebrew seforim printed in Venice during this time. Signature of Rabbi Yitzchak Yedidya Burgo – one of the rabbis of Ferrara in the early 1600s (early 17th century). Signature of Rabbi Yaakov Baruch HaKohen Vitale – one of the sages of Italy (mentioned by Rabbi Chanan’el Nefi in his work, p. 225). Signature of Rabbi Shlomo Yitzchak Burgi [of Ferrara].
