T-Timers

 

T-Timers

 

Founded by Hal Hild in the 1950's, the T-Timers were a large west coast club that had many chapters throughout California. Each club used the same plaque but several chapters had a small "topper" made to indicate where their club was based.

California Chapters known to exist, in addition to the clubs from Arcadia, Bellflower, El Monte, Inglewood, Riverside, San Gabriel Valley, South Gate and Victorville, shown above, were in Culver City, Fresno, Fullerton, Glendale, Lancaster, Newhall, Paramount, Pomona, Redding, Redlands, Sacramento, San Fernando Valley, Santa Ana, Santa Barbara/Goleta, Santa Monica, Torrance, Tulare, Venice, Visalia, West Hollywood, Westchester and Whittier.

 

In the later part of the 1960's, membership was declining and the Culver City, Venice and Westchester chapters were combined and called the Marina chapter. If you have knowledge of other chapters, please let us know so they can be added here.

 


 

Other clubs used the same basic design for their chapter's plaques.
Some examples of the current Over The Hill Gang plaques are shown here.
