The Venice Edition of Talmud Bavli is the first printed edition, by Daniel Bomberg from Venice. It comes with the text of the Gemora and Rashi, and also the Peirush HaMishnayos of the Rambam is printed in the back. Originally, for Masechta Horayos the manuscripts of Tosafos were not available, so Bomberg decided to print the Yerushalmi instead, as he comments on the title page, which is why in all other editions, Horayos has been printed with the Yerushalmi. It is interested to note, that many meforshim on Horayos tried to come up with peculiar reasons why it was always printed with the Yerushalmi, as can be seen from their intorductions to the Masechta, but they never saw the Venice edition on which the reason is explicitly printed.
