Death Valley Scotty at his home of Scotty's Castle in Death Valley, California. 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. Death Valley Scotty, 1872-1954, was a prospector, performer, and con man whose was made famous by his scams involving gold mining near Death Valley. In this postcard he is wearing a white shirt, black pants, an uneven tie, and a wide brimmed hat as he leans against a windowed door that acts as an entrance for his home.
