The Oversized Edwards Bible

A red covering cloth drapes the enormous pulpit folio during transport and conceals the Bible's bulk until the dramatic reveal. It functions as protective wrapping and a theatrical device for the unveiling, signaling the transition from delivery to inspection.

Before: Draped over the oversized Bible on a table being carried into the Northwest Lobby; protecting and disguising the object's size.

After: Pulled back and removed for inspection; likely folded or set aside while the Bible is examined and transported to the Blue Room.
