Looking for a nice, small leather RSV with deutero canon
Here is what I think I want:
Leather cover – rather than imitation
Little or no commentary – makes it too large
Cross references - especially ones in the NT that show which OT passages are referenced

I have a pocket NRSV w/ Deuterocanon with no commentary just the text notes. no cross-reference though. Don't know about what you're looking for. Have you checked Amazon or Barnes & Noble's websites?

I have check a number of places.
I need an ISBN number.
Amazon doesn't exactly lend itself to that sort of search.

Define small - how big is too big?
There's This (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0195288122/qid=1127339581/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/104-0305383-2581526?v=glance&s=books), but it's probably a bit big.
Or this (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1586171003/qid%3D1127339701/sr%3D11-1/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F1/104-0305383-2581526), which is a bit smaller. Although it's 'bonded leather', whatever that means.
Or this one (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0195288513/qid%3D1127339789/sr%3D11-1/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F1/104-0305383-2581526).

I have a great little leather RSV-CE that has the Deuterocanon (obviously ;)) but I don't think it has cross references. You can check it out here:

People have already posted RSV's with deutrocanon but no cross-references, but here is an RSV with no deutrocan but with good crossreferences (as well as an excellent binding)

Bonded leather is essentially reconstitued leather with some glue mixed in with it. If you can, always go for a proper leather binding.

Those by Oxford don't have cross references.
