To make your genuine leather last longer, I have been told to occasionally apply linseed oil.
This is correct linseed is a BAD choice for high grade leathers! Keep them clean, uses an eyeglass dust-cloth to remove dirt or grit, keep them out of direct sunlight. IF YOU MUST USE OIL, buy a high grade lanolin from a good shoe place, and even then use care, apply to a soft cloth first NOT the BIBLE COVER! Then touch to a corner blow a second, if it is a proper amount it should restore luster without being shiny (shiny is bad to much oil) you don't need that much on the cloth.To make your genuine leather last longer, I have been told to occasionally apply linseed oil.
This can seriously damage some leathers. The best oil to preserve the leather of soft bound Bibles is the oil from your hands. If you must use an oil check with the manufacturer. The various tanning processes require differing treatments. You can destroy a good binding by assuming you know what to use.
If they do suggest linseed, be aware that the rags or towels with linseed oil can/will spontaneously combust. Don't make the mistake of leaving the alone. Wash them thoroughly immediately after use or store them in an absolutely air tight container.
The short answer to your question is that every few years, the Thompson Chain Reference is updated. The updates usually are done one version (e.g. KJV, NKJV, NIV) at a time. The number of pages dedicated to archaeology, study helps in the back, and maps changes. I am generally aware an "original" edition of the KJV is still sought after.

Thanks brother for your information.
But do you know why they still search after a an "original" edition of the KJV, while it is not updated like the later editions , so with less chaines ?
Ditto, my latest purchase (which the PB helped me with) was a NKJV Cambridge Pitt Minion the only "notes" are the CT/MT variants at the bottom. (And the reference column if you want to count those) I an going for a "less is more" with Bibles.I hope you enjoy it.
As time goes on I find myself looking through my Bibles for one with fewer notes and I'm starting to shop for a plain Bible without any references. I just want the text.
Peace.

My son just purchased this special edition item for me as a belated birthday present. Wow! Should be arriving in a week or so.
I love mine and used it much in the States.
However, here, with high humidity, those razor-thin pages just don't cut it and the dripping sweat almost ruins the pages when I use it.
Out of curiosity what bible/edition do you use then? I have the same problem when I am in humid conditions...which is rarely
