KEEP ON TRUCKIN'

There are 36 PEZ in the "D" truck series - 4 different style cabs - 4 different color cabs - 2 different color stems (3 for the yellow cab). The chart above has a check mark by the units which have been in the Cornwall collection for some time. The reasoning was that to have 1 each of the 4 different style cabs in each of the 4 colors (=16 + 2 more which we happened to have) would be representative of the series, thinking that stem color variations were not that significant. (And this saved a lot of display space.) That reasoning has been trucked down the road.

Today a source was found for the last 3 (the R1 yellow cab/blue stem was a tuffie) to complete the entire 36 series. They came from 4 different e-bay sources for a few cents to a few bucks. We were lucky that most were being sold in groups over the past few months with others we needed. We did end up with 4 repeats.

We will post a photo spread of the entire truck line when they all roll in. (Plus some surprises.)
p.s. I did NOT make the truck chart, but is sure was handy to keep track of the Comings and Goings - oh yeah, that's the other blog.

WOW!!! That was unexpected, but you know that I can never disagree with more PEZ. That is really fun thanks for sharing
