St. Louis 1915/16 Uniform question?

[jjbond]

Is there an easy way to tell if this is a picture of Fielder Jones in his 1914/1915 St. Louis Terriers uniform, or a later St. Louis Browns uniform?

Thanks. That's what I was leaning towards, but I've seen a number of pictures of him in this top labeled as Federal League....
Guess I'll be extra careful.

But suppose it's possible those jerseys were similar. Would have to search for photos of the Federal League jerseys.

Here are a few others. They look like from the same time period.....the question is which year. I'm still leaning to them being post-Federal League, regardless of how they've been labeled.

According to Marc Okkonen's work, the St. Louis Terriers did not spell out St. Louis on their uniforms in 1914, instead using the StL logo, and only spelled it out on the roadies for 1915, which were dark with white lettering. Also note that the Terriers used pinstripes, but the Browns did not.
