KJVOs and Other versions from the TR

I mainly use the KJV and in my Seminary papers, I cite the King James almost exclusively and in the bibliography, I cite the publisher as UK: Cambridge University Press, Cum Privilegio 1769. I do this as a matter of principle to point out that #1, there is a perpetual "Crown Copyright" (KJV is not public domain), and #2, there have been revisions since 1611 and the "Gold Standard" editions are Cambridge (1769) and Oxford (1762). My main Bible is a Cambridge Wide Margin so I use the Cambridge reference.

Not that my Seminary is KJVO or anything but just in case someone there happens to lean that direction...
While browsing different threads on the site I discovered this post.

I, too, use the 1769 wide margin Cambridge edition of the AV1611 almost exclusively for teaching, preaching and personal study.

I especially like it because it has ruled pages for notes in the back and the margins are 1 1/4" wide making it handy for shorter notes next to the text. The center column cross references and alternate readings are also nice. 👌

I have the black text version. The red letter is distracting for me.
