Great work Trek! From memory, I think it was (only) the Cubs in the early 1940's that first adopted sleeveless, vested jerseys or colored sleeves as you've chosen here. The Majors kept their styles pretty minimalistic until the 1970's. I think the minor league Oakland Oaks of the late 1930's had the colored sleeves like your style. You probably already know this. Otherwise, during the Depression of the 1930's, I think embellishments like your Crabs would be a pipe dream. Of course, none of these have to be restrictions on your imagination!
