Masonic Baseball League, Detroit
 
I am helping a friend do some research on the Detroit area Masonic Baseball League that was organized around the teens to early 1920s. I know Cobb was a Mason and supported the League which was large with over 20 teams.

Specifically I am looking for any photos or news photos that show any of the teams and their uniforms, which would have had a Freemason symbol on the sleeve and a lodge name across the front.

Supposedly Thomas E. Wilson was a Mason and provided support with Uniforms.

Any help much appreciated.
Thanks
Joe

Joe,
No photos as yet, but here is a link to Detroit area history with baseball teams with Masonic connections.

I will take a look at Ernie Harwell's collection in the Detroit Public Library, as he has many old photos.
