The late Jack Minteer took this iconic photo of Maynard’s Club, at the foot of Garnet Avenue, for a 1972 article in Easy Riders magazine titled “Death Of A Biker Bar.” He called the shot “Sunday Morning.” Maynard’s featured Spaghetti Night, Taco Night and — on Sunday morning — Spanish omelets. Bikers mingled with beach folks at the popular watering hole. Underage diners could order their food from a window on Ocean Boulevard, which at that time was an auto thoroughfare. — John Fry is an “almost” native San Diegan who moved to Mission Beach in 1967 after graduating from San Diego State, then to Pacific Beach in 1970.
