Walter Gibbons was a pitcher with the Philadelphia Stars (1941), New York Black Yankees (1941), and Indianapolis Clowns (1948-49). The lettering on his uniform in the attached photo looks as though it could possibly read "New" as in "New York Black Yankees," but the safer conclusion is that it is an unidentified uniform. I have previously posted a photo of Walter Gibbons as an older man.
