Card Identification Forum

There is a set of 2004 MultiAd Peoria Chiefs listed, but not with this card format. There are several cards in this unidentified set on ebay. Is it a team release? Any help would be appreciated.

Curious!  MultiAd usually offered the teams multiple designs to choose from, but rarely did you ever see a team pick more than one in a single season.  Possibly one was an SGA, and the other was sold in the team store?  Archive.org wasn't helpful, and the Peoria Journal Star doesn't have any online presence from 2001-2006 in any of the online newspaper sites.

I thought of an SGA, but I see no sponsorship logo on either card. Unless it was simply a team SGA?

I would agree that one is probably SGA and one is Retail.  Also possible but less likely, they issued two sets that year.  And early set and and late season set.   But most likely a SGA, they don’t necessarily have to have a sponsor logo if the team actually paid for the promotion.   Have to find a complete checklist to get it listed. 

One of the issues I'm hoping we can address on the site is the distinction between minor league store sets and SGA sets,  Generally, the SGA sets have advertisements on them.

Another theory, In 2004 Muit-Ad did some strip sets for teams as SGA.  Typically 5 card strips, 4 players and the 5th card was the sponsor advertising.  Could have been that type of promotion and someone had carefully cut the cards apart.
