Postcard showing Scotty's Castle in Death Valley, California, circa mid 1900s

Date

1920 to 1959

Archival Collection

Description

An image of Scotty's Castle in the desert terrain of Death Valley. 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 1920s and Depression of the 1930s. 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 across the bottom of the image: "Scotty's Castle on the Death Valley Ranch; Death Valley National Monument, Calif."
