Yeah, it's a mystery. Left unsolved (not even cracked a teeny bit) (URL) hospital in the Idea Book 6000 is not even close, but hospital stickers are included. And I just noticed a detail on page 15.

OK, I'm guessing this was simply an unreleased set, but just to be sure, I figured I'd post an all-too-familiar scan from the good ol' 1978 LEGO catalog (the Town layout) and ask everyone if they've ever seen this COOL-looking Hospital set released (...)

(...) That's an idea, but this kit would be extremely expensive! I could probably make it in other colors if those wheels were only offered in something other than lime green. It certainly is food for thought, though... Thanks Adrian (URL) (21 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space, lugnet.town, FTX)
