“The 133-piece milk truck was released as a promotional set for a Danish milk manufacturer Danmarks Internationale Mejeri (MD Foods, later rebranded as Arla Foods). It was available exclusively in Denmark, and apparently only in very small quantities.”
Full review at www.mecabricks.com
“The 'Milk Truck' set (#1952-1) from 1989, also referred to as the 'Dairy Tanker,' represents a simple yet distinct piece of LEGO history. The set, consisting of 133 pieces, was launched as a special promotion for the Danish dairy producer Danmarks Internationale Mejeri,... More later renamed as Arla Foods. The release was strictly limited to Denmark and seemingly in very limited numbers. Today, locating an untouched, pristine set can prove challenging, and when found, it may command a price upwards of €1,750 (approximately $2,000).”
