Amalgamated Flying Saucer Clubs of America (AFSCA)

The Amalgamated Flying Saucer Clubs of America was a California-based non-profit saucerian organisation, formed in 1959 by Gabriel Green as a successor to his earlier Los Angeles Interplanetary Study Groups. AFSCA was most active during the sixties and early seventies, publishing a series of newsletters and magazines, including "Thy Kingdom Come" (1959), "World Report" (1959-61), "UFO International" (1962-65), and "Flying Saucers International" (1966-69), and orchestrating a series of conferences in Los Angeles.

Among varied ephemera produced by AFSCA, the more famous included: postcards featuring one of Paul Villa's flying saucer photographs, claimed to have been taken 16 June 1963 near Albequerque, New Mexico, with the title "See... FLYING SAUCERS Are Real!"; and round pin-back buttons featuring an Adamski-style saucer at center with the words "FLYING SAUCERS ARE REAL" encircling.
