Default 1870-80 Baseball team TinType Photo

I bought this decades ago near Saginaw, Michigan. Because I found it in Michigan I'm going to start my research w/Mich BBCs. It's an original period Tin type photo (circa 1870-80) of an early baseball team. Because of the star pennants, I'm guessing this team had the word STAR in their league name. From my research, Michigan had 3 teams using Star.
1... Wyandotte STAR Club 1867
2... STAR Club of Almont (Lapeer) 1866
3... Lone STAR BBC (Plymouth) 1867

Nationally there were approx 34 teams active 1855-1880 with STAR in their leagues name.

The old building in the background may be a clue.
Any input or opinion is appreciated and if this is not appropriate you may delete this. Thank you. Mark.
