Former flag of Senta (Zenta)?

According to Széll (Városaink neve, címere és lobogója [szs41]), the former flag of Senta is blue with two yellow keys crossed in saltire and pointing upwards put on an ear of wheat, from the handle hole of each key, a fish swimming through.
Széll's book shows the flags of several towns formerly held by Hungary. The book is our only source of these flags, but it is not clear as to what period these flags were used as claimed by the book. I doubt very much that they were used during the time of Austria-Hungary. It seems very much more like they were designed in 1941 - but it is not even clear weather the designs shown in Széll's book are just proposals or if they were ever prescribed in any formal way and after all whether they were used. At least for the moment, I believe that the former flag was in use at most in years 1941-1944.
