As the result of an enormous letter writing campaign and much lobbying, Pennsylvania declared Mother's Day a state holiday in 1913, and Congress followed the following year by making it a national holiday. So, each year, we all reserve a day to celebrate a very special person - our mother. On this day, mothers are honoured by their children of all ages with sentimental cards, potted plants, freedom from chores - and often candy. And, when Americans think about a gift of chocolate, we usually think of HERSHEY'S Chocolates, the sweetest gift a mother can receive.

Now, HERSHEY'S Chocolates and Mother's Day come together in a handsome die-cast Kenworth rig pulling a modern trailer decorated with Mother's Day advertising from Hershey. A cameo of a mother is surrounded by a background of lush roses. Meticulously crafted and authentically detailed, your HERSHEY'S Mother's Day Tractor Trailer is crafted with rear opening doors and the trailer lifts off the cab. Officially authorized by Hershey Foods Corporation, it is produced by - and available only from - Matchbox Collectibles.
