I googled "Momsen photographer" and came up with numerous modern companies but I did stumble across somebody or other's genealogy site which had a postcard photographed by the same fellow who was noted to be the barber and a photography hobbyist in Wilmington, Illinois which is in the vicinity of Kankakee so you might have a look around there.
http://www.nejohnston.org/family_pics/NRitchie.html http://www.nejohnston.org (The photog was noted to be the brother-in-law of one of the family's ancestors. There are email addresses so it might be worth a shot to send them a scan of your ballclub and see if they have any insights. Good luck.

Myrton L. Momsen of Wilmington is the photographer. He was not born until 1905, so much be from the 1920's. Springfield, IL also had a Senators team, which would make sense.

The baseball uniforms in the photo all have collars, which went out of style by the early 1910's. It seems unlikely to me that the image is from the 1920's.

Maybe something along the lines of Blackburn College? They’ve had a team for a long time, although they are the Beavers these days. Or maybe Bradley University was Bradley College back then? Good luck!
