1972 - 74 Hess Tanker Truck USED (4)

The return of the 1968-1969 Hess Tanker Truck for the 1972 and 1974 holiday seasons reflected a wise but cautious attitude during the early 1970s. By issuing this rock-solid truck with minimal updates, the company was able to offer a low-cost toy despite the inflation that roiled the U.S. economy during this period. There is one noticeable change in the '72 model: The stabilizers, or trailer feet, are round. The '68 and '69 stabilizers are square.
