Well, the photo was taken in Kalamazoo, so the K on the sleeve might stand for Kalamazoo. M.A.B.C. might stand for Michigan Association Baseball Club? But there is no record I can find of a negro league team in Kalamazoo.

Hi,
I took a look at that auction several times and decided not to bid on it. Is it possible that ABC actually stands for the American Brewing Company and that this is actually a precursor to the Indianapolis ABC's? I know it may be a stretch
but wanted to throw it out there.

I actually did find another posting in one of the other forums with a team denoted as "MABC." It's killing me now as I can't seem to find that link but it may provide some more insight. If I'm able to find it, I will definitely pass it along.

Below is a nice article on the Indianapolis ABC's and some history.
