That black and white shot of KLS that Maggie Evans kept framed in her room belongs in a class all its own.  Man, that thing creeped me out.

I wonder who's attic or chest Barnabas' wooden toy soldier ended up in? That would be a cool prop to own!

My favorites were Quentin's grammophone, and the gorgeous jewelry Joan Bennett wore...

Also the piano...althought it's a shame they didn't have someone play it more often.

Could I just say that QUentin himself was my favorite prop? LOL ;)

The portrait of Angelique from 1970PT was pretty cool too.

Aren't the sapphire and diamond, or emerald/diamond earrings that Naomi was wearing to die for??

LOL!! Why not? And I'm willing to bet you wouldn't let him sit around on some shelf and get dusty now either, would you??  ;)

Definitely Josette's music box, which I consider DS' most recognizable prop, but Barnabas' ring, cane (aka Willie-beater) and cape were biggies, the traveling afghan, Petofi's hand box, decks of tarot cards,  candles, used in so many storylines.  The list is endless.  

I bought Josette's music box back in 1970 and was thrilled to have it (still do)!  I purchased a Barnabas ring from Time Square Stores, and own it still.  

Love, Robin

My list was growing but I did consider the toy soldier and Sarah's doll.

Gee, I wonder if there are any "handy" craftsmen/ladies out there that could make replicas of either one.  ?!? I bet they could make a nice extra income on eBay! I'd be one of the first to bid on them too  ;D

It would be interesting to know if anyone has the original ones. Perhaps one of the actors/actresses?

I would like to thank everyone who responded to this post!

Let me explain that my memory of events from the original run has never been very good, and I'm constantly impressed by the recall of the rest of you that watched back then.  That having been said, the prop that I remembered the most (argh!) was the grandfather clock in the foyer.  But please don't ask me why it would stick out in my mind more than, say, Josette's music box or that beautiful gramophone.

Yes, Rainey, that's the exact store! I was born and grew up a Levittown girl, and for years, that was THE place to go for us teens!

Small, small world!

I'm another one who's favorites are Barnabas' ring and cane.  I also liked both portraits of Barnabas.  Does anyone know whatever became of them after the series ended?

I believe the cane is hanging on Mr. Frid's wall  ;)

The first rendition of the Barnabas painting in the foyer was stolen so they had to create another; that one showed up in someone's possession and it was given to the DS Festival, or loaned to them, for display.  I might have that wrong.   I don't know what happened to the portrait  Sam Evans did.                        

The Barnabas cane was lost several times during the series, but JF has one that he used to have shown at the festivals years ago.  He threw out the ring and cape after the series ended.
