Black and Green - early 1950s-early 1960s; Any sectn started by Kilbourn Park Gaylords wore black and light blue, any sectn started by Palmer Gaylords wore black and grey. I have had to look at many sourc to piece together this history of the Gaylords and a lot of n be found on the Gaylord’s webse which is one of the biggt sourc I ed. A group of men their early 20s had enough of the Outlaws and created their own club to al wh the rival biker gang that they lled the “Gay Lords.
The headquarters for the Gay Lords Ltle Village was 24th and Whipple and that’s where all started for this group of Gaylords, but this is not the begng of the story of the ALGN necsarily.

The Gay Lords hung out at 24th and Marshall Boulevard out ont of John Spry Elementary School (2400 S Marshall Blvd, Chigo, IL 60623) which is the same tersectn where the legendary 24th and Marshall Boulevard Lat Kgs started, however, they didn’t e along until the mid-1960s and that was maly bee Gay Lords were voluntarily relquishg this rner to serve Vietnam. The Gay Lords of Ltle Village were Polish and Bohemian while the Gay Lords of Wt Town were mostly Italian wh some Mexins so that is a difference.
Greasers world-wi the 50s were big to bik and fixg them was a big hobby of theirs too so the Gay Lords f the classic 50s greaser style. In the mid-1950s there were for sure youths high school that joed the Gay Lords Ltle Village and soon they domated Harrison High School and the Junr ROTC program.
Another part of the foundg history is that of the Gay Lords SAC that was found 1954 the Near Wt Si neighborhood at the tersectn of Ashland Avenue and Taylor Street. The Wt Town and Ltle Village Gay Lords were big to bik and the Wt Town and Ltle Village Gay Lords would eventually slug out wh Lat Kgs later years. By the later 50s Gay Lords graduated to Harley Davidson Motorcycl and this ma the girls flock to them; not only that, but the Gay Lords were also nng Harrison High School and the Outlaws were not happy wh any of g more nflict.
