Twin Peaks Prop – Currier and Ives at the Double R Diner
I love finding new things to share.

Twin Peaks Prop – Sheriff Truman’s U.S. President Trash Can
While recently searching for the Con-way Central Express (CCX) mug prop in various scenes taking place at the Twin Peaks Sheriff’s Station, something caught my eye in Sheriff Truman’s office.

The latter were filled with wonderful and strange listings of treasures I only…

Twin Peaks Prop – Lighted Picture at Double R Diner
Is it really a Twin Peaks set if it doesn’t feature a mid-century lighted picture? This photo of a fisherman wading in front of a mountain occupies the back wall of the Double R Diner through the bulk of the first two seasons.
