Does anyone know which season the SANFL first awarded a flag for a premiership?

Pretty sure it was 1907 and Norwood got the first one.
North's first was 1920.

Thanks LL, that 1920 flag looks to be in North colours and has their name on it. Can you give me anymore info on the evolution of the premiership flag ... when it became the one we know today, etc?

I'm pretty sure the flag design that we know and love today started in 1963 - the same year as the TS Hill Trophy.
