The Collector's Edition of the Omen Antiquitatum features an etched copper version of the symbol, carefully aged with verdigris. The copper plate is then affixed with antiqued nails to a hand-finished plaque of solid red oak (with convenient hanger on the back). The Collector's Edition comes with a facsimile copy of five pages from the Dee Necronomicon which discusses the Omen Antiquitatum and its use. Approximate Dimensions: 8 inches x 8 inches x 3/4 inch (20x20cm)
The Occultist Edition features the etched copper Omen Antiquitatum and a set of four antique nails for affixing it to the object of your choice.
Our John Dee Elder Signs, like many of our artifacts, are made by hand, usually when ordered, in a mystical process that can take some days. For this reason, we cannot guarantee that they will always be available for immediate shipment. But then again, if you need emergency protection from the forces of the Mythos you have more pressing concerns than a potential shipping delay....
Warrantee, Occult Indemnification and Fine Print
Persons purchasing the Omen Antiquitatum hereby acknowledges that it is a potent magical symbol which manipulates cosmic forces completely beyond the understanding of mankind. Further, Purchaser acknowledges that the Elder Sign is intended to be carefully consecrated and used in accordance with some bizarre rules written by a mad Arab nearly 1400 years ago. Purchaser understands that there is no Warranteee (implied or otherwise) that ElderWear will necessarily provide guaranteed protection against: supernatural infestation, demonic possession, ectoplasm, enchantments and/or ensorcelments, or mental instability. Purchaser agrees to hold HPLHS, Inc., its subsidiaries and officers free and blameless from any and all damages arising from occult and/or supernatural phenomena.
We recommend that you NEVER touch the copper surface of the elder sign with your skin - oils on your skin will damage the patina. Please do NOT attempt to clean, buff, or polish it or use any kind of solvent on its surface - this will also destroy the patina. As the copper can continue to oxidize, we recommend keeping it away from direct sunlight (ditto for vampires) and sources of water or high humidity.
Once again another great relic for my mini Miskatonic University display area, I displayed this along with the random Necronomicon pages collected from the DART prop sleeves
The quality is beyond impressive! I sprang for the collector's edition and couldn't be happier with the decision. There isn't much I can say that others have not already, so I will just say that I highly recommend this product for its remarkable quality and uniqueness.
Love the patina and dated look of it. I got mine with the wood mounting and couldn't be happier. Would have paid $100.
This thing is a work of beauty, I purchased the collector edition and it looks real good next to my El Profondu and my Woodland Rites pieces, it comes with a copy of the pages from the Necronomicon.
Just got my order….
It’s even better than I expected. Plus, my home is now relatively safe from Great Old One activity, a definite bonus!
