Default Help Identifying Possible Black Yankees Jersey

A long shot, but I recently acquired this Jersey from a seller that did not know much about it. It appears to be wool, late 1940s or early 1950s with original tag manufactured by Coane Athletic and Knit Manufacturing of Philadelphia. It also came from Philadelphia and not the New York area.

Is has honest wear along the neckline, and a repair on the back. It has embroidered arm air vents. It is also short sleeve. It does happen to look similar to a Jersey worn jersey worn by Bob Griffith of the Black Yankees in the 1948 east-west all-star game. It is size 38. I have found a decent number of photos with Black Yankee Uniforms and most do not look like this, but the 1948 ones appear to. From what I can initially dig up online I can see Coane appeared to make high a variety of quality athletic wear in the late 1940s and early 50s including college letterman jackets, hats and wool baseball uniforms. I saw a Net54 thread that indicated Coane produced hats for at least 2 MLB teams during this era. Anyone have any additional information on Coane or next steps in researching this one? I thought it could also have been made for a minor league team possibly.
