About Truckee Old Jail Museum
Crockett Family Private Collection, Las Vegas, NV
(Giclee Available)
The Truckee Old Jail Museum is located on Jibboom Street in Historic Downtown Truckee. This building was so much fun to paint, not just because of its colorful history but because of the magnetism I felt when I first saw this unique little building. Something about it said, “Paint me! I am important!” It’s been noted that some “infamous people” have spent some time in the Truckee Jail even if it was for only an overnight stay. People such as “Machine Gun” Kelly and “Baby Face” Nelson were two of the more notorious “residents.” According to the Truckee Historical Society the building is one of only few surviving 19th century jailhouses of its kind in the West and one of the few remaining original buildings in Truckee.
I'm pleased that the original painting sold the 1st day it was displayed at Art Obsessions Gallery.However, a limited edition giclee is available and is now hanging at Art Obsessions in Truckee.
