It didn't take long for Topps and Upper Deck to come up with Sarah Palin cards. They had issued most of the notable candidates in products already, but since Palin come out of nowhere somewhat, she wasn't featured yet. Well, we didn't have to wait long.

Palin will have two cards in future Topps products with one picturing her as she appears today and the other picturing her as an Alaskan Beauty Queen. The Beauty Queen single will be in Topps Update & Highlights, which hits the second week of Oct. and will have a limited print run.

Upper Deck will add to its Presidential Predictors insert with a pair of illustrated cards, featuring Palin (PP-15) and Joseph Biden (PP-16). They will be available in SP Authentic Baseball, which hits this week. Biden is depicted as longtime Washington Senator's pitcher Walter Johnson, while Palin is shown atop a dogsled and sporting a tiara.

Also, I will briefly share this crazy eBay item I found with the help of PSA's forum. The item has been pulled by now, but luckily I did a screen grab of it. It has the title: "Husband left me and his Griffey RC..." The description adds that her husband left her, but forgot to take his sports card collection so she is selling it. The most bizarre part is the photo she includes with the auction listing. A picture tells a 1,000 words, so I'll just post the screen grab. I've read the auction a few times and still have no idea what she's selling.
