GE1 is based on FC, Chopin took no part in its preparation. In the entire Op. 28 GE1 contains many adjustments and errors – see Prelude in C no. 1. There are copies of GE1 which have differing covers, and the edition was also published in a version of 4 fascicules containing 6 preludes each.
In this Prelude it is the right revisions that are noteworthy – adding a 
restoring d1 in b. 8 and 12 and placing ritenuto from b. 7-8 only when this phrase is repeated in b. 11-12. In turn, one of the flaws is 
repeated in b. 9 instead of authentic
