I've been trying to find more info on this club my late Uncle Tommy helped form in the mid-'50s. Anyone heard of it, or was in it?
Uncle Tommy (O'Brien) was from Rosemead, went to Mission High, got some of the main car clubs to become one group: The Paegans. They had club jackets with a silly lookin' guy with a turban and long twirly beard on the back.
Web search hasn't picked any fruit, wondered if any of you had heard of it, or know of a good car club history link.
I'll tell you guys more 'bout it, once I find out more.

Ono o' my goals for my Christmastime visit with So Cal family, is to find out more about this, dig up some more pics of him and his ride (and of course share it here).

InPrimer, that's an amazing site, even suburbs and towns of California I had no idea had car clubs. As for plaques- what do the numbers beside the name indicate? Member #? Chapter?
I'll let you know if I find more on the Pagans.
