History 50s Car Club Jacket Satin

I know that car club jackets were moslty made out of wool, with a chain stitching embroidery, but has anyone seen a satin jacket back in the 50s and 60s? I have came across only two so far. I m very iterested in finding out more satin and nylon car club jackets.

 

I was in the Restylers Car Club in Baltimore in the 60's. We had gold satin jackets, chain stitching with a hot rod and our presidents' 56 Ford custom on the back. Our names were on the front. The night we got them, the club went to a carnival that had a strip show (real trashy) and we all went in with our jackets and raised so much hell, we all got thrown out. I would give anything I own to get my jacket back again!
