Jackson collectors or Topps proof collectors, or both?

Topps Proof comes in many forms...progressive proofs of regularly issued cards are usually plentiful...the ones that are special to collectors who are into these variations are the ones that never was issued as part of the regular set, because of trades, team changes, etc.... the poses are different, uniforms and team designations could also vary as well... in this case its also a HOF player... it all adds up to being a very desirable card.
