This one would likely be considered a fantasy pennant, as there is probably no original version that it is based upon.
It would seem to me, that as a modern production, that design and “Brownies” could be the maker’s attempt to avoid copyright infringement. That wouldn’t explain other “Brownies” pennants, of course, including (I think) an old WGN version.
