It appears to me that the copy of the ASV (American Standard Version) published in 1901 by Thomas Nelson, located at https://archive.org/details/holybible00newy, is using the translators' notes on the readings of manuscripts, and using their cross references and even their topical headings. They do not appear to be Thomas Nelson's proprietary notes. If you go to the webpage for this book (Bible), read pages viii-ix of the general Preface and page v of the Preface to the New Testament. Then, go to a random passage in the New Testament part and see if the notes correspond to what the Prefaces say about the translators' references. It seems very likely to me that they do.
As far as this being "published" is concerned, this edition is certainly out-of-print in the dead tree form. Possibly (I haven't checked to see) you could find it on the used book market. Bookfinder is a great place to do a used book search. |
I have a Google scan, but I'd like an epub (or something I can turn into an epub). I found a SWORD module with the notes, but they're not formatted correctly. I keep imagining that "someday" I'll try to fix it, but I'd rather somebody just sell me one.

Same problem with finding online another book which maybe didn't print the biblical text of the RV, but did print the translators' notes.

I meant
this RV, although I've only found one
ebook RSV and that one's a poorly-formatted Calibre conversion.
