This is a Masonic Lecture Cloth dating from 1806. It is about two feet square. It is much larger than it looks in the above photo. There are nearly fifty Royal Arch and Masonic Symbols spread across the cloth. It has four verses of a Masonic Song written across the top, and four verses of another song across the bottom. Unfortunately it is torn in the center, near where there is the letter "G" being suspended from the arch. The images look like they were engraved on a metal plate and then multiple copies of this lecture cloth were made. | This is a Masonic Lecture Cloth dating from 1806. It is about two feet square.
