You’ve probably noticed the jadeite green coffee mug seen around the Twin Peaks Sheriff Department (which Steven Miller first wrote about here in 2018). But did you know the station also has an identical counterpart with a peach colored finish?
It isn’t until the second season of Twin Peaks that we step into Sheriff Truman’s office. There, a whole new world of props and decorations are introduced. One such item is a paperweight distributed by Rosenthal-Netter, Inc. which features a brass owl on a marble base. Here’s a closer look at the latest prop I’ve…
Time for another detailed look at a set from Twin Peaks in a recurring series titled “Setting the Stage.” For this exercise, I wanted to see how the views looking out from the Twin Peaks Sheriff’s Department changed during the series and film. The inspiration for this story came from a 1989 newspaper article which had an…
Something’s brewing in Twin Peaks and I had to find it. When I first discovered TwinPeaksBlog.com, I became obsessed with figuring out the central items in a particular image of Lucy Moran at the Twin Peaks Sheriff’s Station. After many cups of coffee and several internet searches, I have identified the automatic coffee brewing system in…
In Twin Peaks episode 2.021, Agent Cooper hypothesizes that “if the door to the Black Lodge does exist, it probably exists at a point in time.” Symbols from the Owl Cave petroglyph and a pocket book on planets lead him to conclude that the gateway opens when Jupiter and Saturn meet.

Lately I’ve been spending time identifying a variety of props found in Twin Peaks. I love the thrill of the hunt and the endorphin rush when I finally find a match. This effort to identify all of the props has turned into a team sport which is fantastic! After I published an article about a Con-way…
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. We all know Truman’s name is reminiscent of the 33rd President of the United States, Harry S. Truman. It appears that his love of presidents…
One of my favorite things to find are props that were carried over from the Pilot Episode to the regular season of Twin Peaks. Thanks to the help of fellow Bookhouse Boy Jason McMahan, I recently picked up a replica of the Con-way Central Express (CCX) Miles Ahead mug that is seen both in the Pilot…
Following the passing of Leland Palmer in Episode 2009, the law enforcement team and Major Briggs gather on a rock-lined path to analyze and decompress the emotional event. Thanks to Charles and Travis from the former InTwinPeaks.com website, we know the location where this scene was shot in southern California. Using the original post from…
