My first 12 teams in 1901 are....
American League
Pittsburgh Alleghenies
Philadelphia Athletics
New York Knights
Buffalo Electrics
Boston Pilgrims
Baltimore Lords
National League
St. Louis Wolves
New Orleans Pelicans
Detroit Wolverines
Cleveland Blues
Cincinnati Buckeyes
Chicago Colts
I have caps and jerseys for the 1901 New York Knights (past work by TXRanger) but I need the other 11 teams and am hoping one of you might be willing to take on the challenge.
I'm not interested in logos on the uniforms - just the city names. I'll add the team logo to the jersey's shoulder after 10 years or so.

UPDATE
After doing some research (which I should have done first) I have found a number of previous creations that come close enough to what I was looking for in these early uniforms. Thanks for reading - and great job TXRanger on what you have been doing for everyone.

Here are a couple of links to some of my Photobucket albums that are within that early time period you are looking for... If after your research you are still missing some, let me know which ones and I'll see about making them up for you...
