Call it a homage. Call it a love letter to a father. Call it the most comprehensive resource ever compiled about Hess toy trucks. Just get one. That's what the world's leading expert on the East Coast's nearest and dearest collectibles says. Already nationally-recognized on CBS News, Bloomberg, NY Post, and other media sources for his knowledgeable devotion for the toys, Michael D. Roberto brings the 2019 Hess Truck Encyclopedia Collectors Guide to Amazon. And to think, it all started in 1977 when, at the age of five, the author took a trip with his terminally-ill father to a Hess gas station to get his first Hess truck. Little did his father know how that simple act of love would shape his son's life and that he'd always be remembered for, something I think resonates inside us all.
