content: It may be speculated that the words on the back of the vest refer perhaps to something associated with the Miller Brothers 101 Ranch? The 101 Ranch operated in Oklahoma 1879 - 1936. They put on a Wild West show that travelled the U.S. and the world 1905 - 1931. Among the businesses the ranch operated was a novelty factory, where rugs, beaded objects, and silver jewelry, etc. were manufactured in the factory by Indians employed by the Miller brothers.
