When your at home base, where do you display your Spiritus M., DarkB or other? I been traveling back-in-forth with my DB in a beatup nasty steamer trunk, which suits it well. The DB has yet found a permanent place inside my dwelling. I would guess most of you keep yours on display in a prominent area. I am searching for a antique, perfect size small round table for mine to reside on, but so far no luck.

We also do a DB aged wood carrying case. It's for travel, not display though.
GYPSY CURSE!

My SM lives on my desk in my home office where I do readings. There is currently also a small table awaiting 'Forever'. It sits just across the room in the peripheral vison of where my clients sit during a reading (for 'entertainment' purposes only MUHAHAHAHAHAAHA)

BTW
The case that Jake Murphree made for his Spiritus was killer! He posted pics here on Café about year ago. I tried contacting him for some time, but seems he's not around the Café anyomore. I'd buy his custom case in a sec...way cool!

With everything that has happened over the past 15 months, my boards are out of sight and covered.

Here's how I display mine.
Picked the stand up at at a local Michael's near the picture/photo frames section. I added some felt to the feet and to any metal parts that might touch/scrape the board. The design is "attractive" enabling one to store "something" on the back of the design when using the board.
I've been hoping Rick/Outlaw would come out with a stand (with a built in something), that looks like the stand that is provided with DCK, enabling the board to be displayed, but ready to invoke the spirits at a moments notice.
Rick, any update on possible availability / price for such a display base/stand?

Here are a couple of other items...
The Departed is on display on a cabinet of other curiosities in my home office (left pic). Several other items are mixed in with some antiques in the bookshelves in another room (right pic) -- Suicide Hotel (in open silver box by large bell), Annabelle Lee (hidden from view in open wooden box w/ old photo on inside lid), and DCK (lower right). My wife has even allowed D. Darko to be displayed prominently in our family room (no pic) -- she's a good woman.

Initially thought I would keep mine on my closeup table underneath my The Amazing Randi. The Man No Jail can Hold! poster. But then I couldn't practice any time I walked by that table. So I am putting it on a steamer trunk my grandpa brought back from WWII. I will have it sitting next to my 100 year old doctor's bag that holds my closeup props. In the future I would like to find an antique table for 'table tipping' and store my SM on it. Later I will frame the typewritten description of the history of my SM that I found inside when I purchased this from an old magic collector.

That's a sweet set-up! I need to get on board with some fine bookshelfs so that all my clutter can be presented properly. It's a constant work in progress. Need to reclaim some dedicated square footage from the head witch. But she's a tuff one.
Is that your cuss box with the skull on top? If you don't mind, what exactly is the box in the frame above the skull?
Thanks

Unfortunately, that is not a cuss box...I have insufficient warding spells on my home to keep such an artifact. It is wooden box in the shape of a book...no idea where I picked it up over the years.
The box in the picture is Robert-Houdin's Light-and-Heavy chest, from Ken Klosterman's collection. The picture is one of a set of 6 that spells out "M A G I C !" with each print featuring a different magician's effects from Ken's collection (Houdini, Thurston, Gustl Schieb, Okito, Hofzinser, and Robert-Houdin).
