Oklahoma baseball and Negro League historian, my introduction

[Jobu]

The only thing I was able to find about the team in in the link in my post that mentions local teams. I tried searching the address on the back and that street address shows up in Fort Smith, Arkansas, which isn't too far from Tulsa. Searching for "Professor Edward Jones" only gets me financial advice.

Thanks for sharing them!

Very interesting! I live just over the river from Fort Smith and go right through that area often. That makes me want to visit again.
