Photograph article dated March 15, 1963 partially reads, "Searching for buried treasure is something small boys do, and grown men only dream about - unless they're members of the Ghost Town Club. Larry A. Weed, 9725 Comanche St., Chatsworth, vice president of the club, says the whole thing started with a machine shop 'bull session' at the Rocketdyne plant in Canoga Park, where he's employed." Photograph caption reads, "Larry Weed checks treasure finder. Weed is a Ghost Town Club member."
