By all appearances (the term seems apt), the gremlins toiling away at Lebanon Circle have crafted new offerings, all characteristically beguiling.
I have my eye on Vitrum Ostium, and I suspect I will not be the only one here whose acquisitive instincts are whetted by what is on offer.

You're right balzar, Dan is on a roll. I really love his last round of smaller more modest props, and now he's rolling out a couple of big boys... but, he's giving us some forewarning to budget accordingly, e.g. skip a car payment, and who needs groceries anyway? I have my eye on Vitrum Ostium as well.
Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.

Hoping to see some of the new products at Doomsday. Lots of intriguing releases.

This. Is. The. Thing.

Haven't been able to stop thinking about it since I got to see a backstage preview earlier this year. V.O. is gonna land right smack dab in the middle of my collection and change it all.

Thank you, Dan. Here's to the Lebanon Circle tree; may its twisted roots continue to grow!

40 out of 100 sold in about 90 minutes. No surprise. This adds an entirely new dimension (literally) to the traditional change box. Dan is the man.

I had the opportunity to play with the prototype and see it in real-world action. It is even better than the video shows. The subtlety of removing the lid to keep an eye on the interior is extraordinarily deceptive and logical. It is the only piece of kit going into my new act that I have not built myself. It is the perfect switch device--the switch can happen under control of the audience! (Dan probably won't tell you about this feature, but it is precisely how I will be performing it.) If there are any remaining by the time of this writing, I strongly recommend you getting your hands on one. You will not regret it.

Fabulous! One is on its way to me. Can’t wait to use it. So many applications.

Speaking of getting your hands on one and you won't regret it, Dan's site shows only 3 left of PROF BC's Excellent "The Queen's Almanac." 3 is not a large number, so if you were on the fence, get off now.

The Hand of Glory is designed to be displayed in the box - it is really just a prop with several routines based on a mummified hand. In one routine, you conduct an exorcism with the hand, but it doesn't actually do anything inside the box itself.

The box was initially built to house the hand, but then I discovered it would also make a great switch box!

Thanks for all of the fantastic comments from everyone btw, I appreciate each and every one of them (and you).

I received my box and boy is it great! There are any number of things one can do with this. I have a mahogany finish with a mahogany pumpkin knob. the combination of which looks truly wonderful.

This has changed and improved a piece I am developing immensely.

The whole kit is just so nice with the insert, the book element, and the trickery...

Hats off to the master who is Dan Baines!

Best wishes

No opinion on this particular offering but I will say doing business with Dan is first class. I had ordered some items from him which were very well packaged. No fault of his but the box and internal packing were soaked in the rain at some point in the journey. Fortunately, because they were so well packaged, the items were undamaged. Dan offered to replace any of them if damaged. You can trust him! Highly reccomend him as a vender.

I had this out yesterday for rehearsal and it works a dream. Numerous billets vanish only to be replaced with a final and profound message.

The look and feel blends in nicely with the other items that are part of this routine and everything works perfectly.

Who else has received their box? The waiting is painful, but I know it will be worth it!

Nothing yet for me.

I need to restock the supplies I keep in my tent. The one I pitched right next to the mailbox.

It will definitely be worth the wait.

Did you two rehearse that?

I received notice that mine should ship by end of July. I'm going to conservatively hope for a late August delivery, and be pleasantly surprised if it arrives sooner.
