The value of a game used Jersey will rely on the weight of the provenance that accompanies the jersey, and the player it belonged to. Provenance is the history of ownership of a particular item. It allows the buyer to secure additional insight as to the origin or chain of custody of the item. A letter of provenance from a a team official, a family member or party close to the source will hold more weight than a letter from a collector that will hold little weight if any.
Without provenance tagging on the Jersey, and player characteristics will have to be used by a professional authenticator to determine if the Jersey is Game used, evaluated, and graded as to the probability of being game used. Game used Jersey's with this type of authentication will sell at a lower value depending on the grade given.
Professional Baseball Jerseys from the time period you mentioned were not made of Satin. They were made of flannel. You are either mistaken of what material the jersey is made of or the Jersey is not Game Used. In the late 1940's and into the 1950's the Brooklyn Dodgers sponsored a "Brooklyn vs. The World tour which matched ametuer teams at Ebbets Field. The team from Brooklyn that played wore white satin uniforms with "Brooklyn" accross the chest. I believe the jerseys were made by Rawlings. After 1945 the Brooklyn Dodgers no longer used "Brooklyn" on the jerseys. If the jersey you have says "Brooklyn" and is made of satin, it likely came from the ametuer baseball team tour and is not an actual Brooklyn Dodgers jersey. One of these jerseys would still be quite valuable if in good, unaltered condition. Many future pro players played in this tour and the possibility exist that perhaps the jersey was worn by a future major leaguer. If the jersey says "Dodgers" then you may have something altogether different. The Dodgers were a very popular team during that era and went on many traveling tours and could of likely worn flamboyant, satin uniforms. I seem to remember once seeing a powder-blue Dodgers jersey that was used in one these traveling exhibitions.

Where are the Los Angeles Dodgers from originally?
I think it was in the 1940s or early 1950s when the Brooklyn Dodgers moved to California.
Did the team have another name before it was called the Los Angeles Dodgers?
The LA Dodgers were once the Brooklyn Dodgers. In the late 1950s, both the Dodgers and Giants (then a New York team) moved to California. Yes, they were known as the Brooklyn Dodgers when the team was in Brooklyn. They were also known as The Brooklyn Bums or just 'Da Bums. They were the working man's team as opposed to the mighty Yankees who were known as the elitist man's team: the blue collar vs. the white collar teams. During the period from the '30's through the early 50s, the Dodgers were also refered to as the Robins. In the 19th Century, before they were re-named the Dodgers, they were called the Brooklyn Bridegrooms. The Dodgers were known as the Robins out of respect to their Hall of Fame manager Wilbert Robinson during the 1910s and 1920s. Brooklyn Bridegrooms, 1890-1898 Brooklyn Superbas, 1899-1910 Brooklyn Dodgers, 1911-1913 Brooklyn Robins, 1914-1931 Brooklyn Dodgers, 1932-1957 Los Angeles Dodgers, 1958-present
What National League baseball team did Roger Khan dub the Boys of Summer?
The Brooklyn Dodgers of the early 1950s.
How did the dodgers get their name?
They were named the Dodgers because in Brooklyn they had trains running through the city and people would always have to "Dodge" them That is how they got their name! The early trolleys in Brooklyn were run on DC power. This caused the trolleys to build up excessive electrical current and when the amount became too great the trolley would make a popping noise. This was an advanced warning of an oncoming electrical shock to customers. When this popping was heard the passangers would get off the trolley ASAP to avoid the shock. This activity was known as Trolley Dodging.
