While searching for photos on the Birmingham Ind. League, I came across this photo from 8-2-1919 the old US Steel Gary Works Baseball Team... I tried my best to re-create the jersey... I have no idea what the logo means on the chest but it looks like the letters C or a G they looked very similar in some lettering used in that time period, an S, an I with a small o in the center...
I am thinking Indiana Steel Company? or some reference to Gary Indiana Steel??? Thought it was a unusual jersey and logo... Maybe someone out there will know what the logo refers to...
