     (...) Hi Todd, I own both Maersk and SW sets, and NO, it is NOT the same color.

         Re: Maersk Blue? Todd Lehman
     (...) Interesting! So how to they compare? I've never seen the two side by side. Is Maersk Blue a deeper, bluer blue than light blue? --Todd (22 years ago, 3-Sep-02, to lugnet.promo, lugnet.general, lugnet.loc.dk)
