That is a "TR", but it most emphatically is NOT the Oxford 1825 TR which
had previously been reprinted by Dallas Seminary.  Instead, that is the
Scrivener 1894 TR which was artificially created by him to reflect the
text purportedly underlying the KJV.  That text also is useless for
text-critical purposes, and I do not recommend it, especially for
collation, since it has over 220 differences from the Stephens 1550 text.
