WTB Braves hot dog SGAs 1989, 1997, 1998 -- does anyone have suggestions for a source
 
For about 15 years from the late 80s to the early 2000s, the Braves' hot dog vendors sponsored SGA sets that today are generally hard to find.

I'm looking for five:

1989 Dubuque Braves - Jeff Wetherby
1997 Bryan Braves (non-perforated) - Chris Brock
1997 Bryan Braves (non-perforated) - Mike Cather
1997 Bryan Braves (non-perforated) - Chad Fox
1998 Bryan Braves (non-perforated) - Kerry Ligtenberg

Few people care about these issues--aside from the HOFers who appeared in those sets--so the commons tend to get stuck in drawers and never see the light of day. It's not hard to to find Glavine or Smoltz, but sure seems tough to find Jeff Wetherby. Anyone able to help--even with just a referral to a dealer/collector?

Thanks-
Jeff

Jeff, I may know someone I’ll check with him. Any chance you have an extra ‘97 Bryan Fred McGriff for sale/trade?

Thanks Rob! I don't have any 97 Bryan Braves cards at all, but if I were to get one as part of a purchase, I'd happily shoot that one to you.

Thanks Jeff. I know someone hunting that card, which is why I asked. I’ll see if he has any you may be looking for. These Regional sets are tough!

Particularly the Braves hot dog regionals!

I may have seen your friend's posts here: https://www.freedomcardboard.com/for...-lykes.142526/.

Either way, since I'm not pursuing the McGriff card myself, please let your friend know that I'd be happy to look out for that card and save for their benefit if they can look out for the obscurities I'm trying to find.

It looks like your friend has been actively looking for the McGriff since at least 2014. On that fact alone, I'd be pleased to help if I can.

That’s Kenny I believe. He is @icollectmcgriff on Twitter.

So, amazingly enough, I found four of the five Bryan Braves cards I was looking for on ebay not long after posting on this site. Still looking for 1998 Bryan (non perf.) Kerry Ligtenberg.

Hope your friend had some success from the same seller.
