OKLAHOMA STATE SEAL TAKEN 6/11/1910

Today is the anniversary of when the official Oklahoma State Seal was "moved" in the middle of the night from Guthrie and taken by horseback to Oklahoma City, which then became the capitol of Oklahoma. Photographs include:
Row 1: the courthouse in Guthrie, from where the seal was taken
Row 2: the state capitol in Oklahoma City
Row 3: views from inside the dome
Row 4: "The Guardian" statue by Enoch Kelly Haney, which was added to the capitol along with the dome in 2002.
