Bible sticky tabs that won't tear paper when removed or lift print ?

[Bob777]

I'm trying to find some little sticky tabs to use in my Bible to mark pages. I know there are little Post It Note tabs, but I think I read they might lift up print when removed. I'm not sure if they can tear the delicate Bible paper.

Are there any good Post It Note marking tabs or something similar that any of you use, and work good for you, for quickly locating pages in your Bible?

I went to two Christian book stores yesterday, but they didn't have tabs made specifically for Bibles.

Thanks,
Bob

Thanks Edward.
I'll give that a try. I was a little worried when I read that they don't guarantee it won't lift print. I guess the mfg was just trying to protect themselves.

Thanks for your reply,
Bob

If your bible doesn't have gold leaf on the sides of the pages, there is one thing you might consider... I did this with my Bible years ago and it worked well...

Take all the pages of a specific book in the bible (ie all the pages of Genesis) and hold them tightly together and take a pen and ink in a small area on the side edge. Then,

(lol... this is harder to explain than I thought.. my whole family has tried to come up with clear words to use here...it's simple to do, just hard to describe)

Hold all the pages of your bible and twist them slightly to the side, as if you about to flip through the pages. This will slightly spread the pages apart. Then you can take your pen and write the abbreviation of the book next to the mark for that book. When the bible is closed, you see the mark for the book, but the writing of the abbreviations isn't that clear. However, when you want to turn to a specific book, all you need do is slightly twist the pages and the writing will be clearly seen.

I hope this is clear... clear as mud maybe?
