Between the frequent use of diegetic music and the art department’s consistent aesthetic choices, Twin Peaks is a vintage radio aficionado’s dream. One piece that appears onscreen with some regularity is the Zenith X316 table radio at Shelly and Leo Johnson’s house.
The quest to identify all the props from David Lynch and Mark Frost’s wonderful and strange show Twin Peaks continues with a unique offering originally posted by Executive Producer Sabrina Sutherland. She through out a challenge to identify a whisky bottle from the archive. As it turns out, the breakaway glass bottle prop appears in my…
My fascination with identifying props from Twin Peaks started in the early 2010s after seeing the Twin Peaks Props website run by brother Jerry Horne. One of the first I found was the hot dog serving platter at the Johnson house followed by Special Agent Dale Cooper’s milk glass. One of the more obscure background items…
While updating the location article about the Mitchum Brothers home, I saw a brief scene of a digital clock sitting on a shelf during Part 11. It’s one of those “blink and you’ll miss it” props but it called to me as I could clearly see a manufacturer’s name – Bruno.

This article pushes that idea to the limit as I discuss a barely seen prop from Twin Peaks – Part 1 from The Return – Marjorie Green’s framed photo by Henri Cartier-Bresson.

Today, I’m happy to add two more pieces to the prop and set decoration identification gallery – Ethan Harper artwork from the…
One of the final official events for Real Twin Peaks 2024 was the Twin Tilts Pinball Tournament at Volition Brewing Co. in North Bend, Washington. This location served as Nadine Butler Hurley’s Run Silent, Run Drapes shop in Twin Peaks The Return before it was converted into an outstanding local brewery. The cool part about…
