Buck Jones was a movie cowboy in silent films and westerns who built a Spanish Revival home at 14050 Magnolia Blvd. in Sherman Oaks in 1937. Frescoes of western scenes covered some of the walls, and the structure was specifically built to resist fire (ironic, since Jones died in 1942 of burns he suffered in the infamous Cocoanut Grove nightclub fire in Boston that claimed 492 lives). His home on the southeast corner of Magnolia and Hazeltine Street later became the site of the Mar-Ken School, which mostly educated child actors. The home was demolished in 1980 for apartments, but a website devoted to the school's history has more on the house.
