Assuming it's legit, it almost has to be the college. Hard to imagine a semi-pro or minor league team using the name of the state instead of the city they played in, although I guess it's possible there were localities with that name in OK or other states.

I agree... Most likely a college pennant. Although the colors are more indicative of Oklahoma State than OU. Let us know what you’re able to find out, as it’s an oldie!

Has to be OU, nobody would make an OK State pennant without the "State."

Wasn't State in those days it was Oklahoma A&M and they were members of the Southwest Conference

Our third largest university, University of Central Oklahoma, has the colors of Bronze and Blue (adopted in 1895) that match the pennant. At the time, they were Central State Normal School, so they could also be an option.

It will be interesting to research, I would assume most colleges had a baseball program by then. Keep us posted!
