Wondering if there are any other examples of it. It's on a large 34" pennant, c.1915. Could it have been a custom order for a fraternity or social society? I am wondering how this was ordered back then. Maybe the group sent the artwork and then the emblem was created? or Possibly they just asked for a design to be created for them? Curious on any theories.
Thanks!

Although I have no theories, that’s a cool pennant. What is the “CO” the beginning of?
BTW - that guy’s dog walks like mine (behind the back)
