I have a Tulsa oil rig souvenir that I got in 1995. When the oil industry comes roaring back Tulsa will be smoking! Anyhoo the souvenir is nifty it's black & gold in color stands about 15". Oil is a major Tulsa industry... Black Gold, Oklahoma Tea!....  Lisa has a Tulsa tee Shirt with the Tulsa Skyline on it. :)

I have seen them but cant really help as to where to get them. ORU prayer tower and the praying hands statues and of course the Golden Driller.
Changing opinions one mistake at a time.

Not certain I agree with you. The last oil bust taught Tulsa to diversify and the internet bust reminded us again. We like our oil in Tulsa, but mostly in our memories.

Nothin to be creeped out about.  These are just a part of the Oklahoma heritage.  Maybe some day I'll tell you the legend behind the dreamcatchers if your nice.

sure, didn't mean to be disrespectful. maybe it's different when they're not necessarily a part of the heritage, but rather some sort of fashion statement!

Sadly, I sold my "Phantasmagoria" mug at a garage sale. 

What was I thinking?!

these things happen. I sold my classic platform disco shoes at a garage sale to a giggling gen-x-er.

I would have given you $20 just to take a picture of you in them...and let you keep the shoes.

How bout:

TU's gift shop (@ the Allen Chapman Activity Center by sorority row)
ORU's gift shop (no idea where it is on campus)
Gilcrease's gift shop
Jenks main street surely has something.
