This was a great item to acquire and most people have never even seen these before. Pictured above is a cut-out advertisement announcing that the Hess tanker would be available at the stations on November 15th 1964 and you could purchase it for only $1.39! Can you believe that? It sold at the stations for $1.39 back then and is worth upwards of $2000.00 today! The ad goes on to show you all the things that are on the Hess Tanker such as how the headlight and taillights work and how to install the battery among other things. The 1964 Hess Tanker is the smallest of all the regular released trucks in the collection but has always been a favorite of collectors!
