I don't think we could ever get an accurate representation of it even with just park adjustments because some players in 1901 were more likely to hit more than 35% of their homeruns ITP like speedy line drive hitters like sam crawford (over 50% of his career HR are ITP). unless you tied in speed, gap and power mixed with other things. the big parks weren't the only factor either, much poorer fielding played plenty a role.

in other words, i don't think it's realistic to get this properly implemented all the way through.
