Description
The view of Scotty's room in Scotty's Castle, Death Valley, California. The hottest place on Earth, Death Valley is located between California and Nevada. Located within the far northern region of Death Valley in Grapevine Canyon, the Death Valley Ranch, more commonly known as Scotty's Castle, is a prime example of Spanish-Mediterranean styling during the Roaring '20s and Depression '30s. Scotty's Castle was constructed by Albert Johnson with the help of Death Valley Scotty during the Great Depression, but because the men began to build onto federal land, construction was forced to a halt. To this day, Scotty's Castle remains incomplete. Transcribed onto the bottom border of the image: "Death Valley Scotty's Room In His Castle; Death Valley, California; Frashers Foto, Pomona, Calif."
