Vintage KLM Bols Amsterdam Holland Blue Delft Miniature Collector House #39, #32

Description

KLM BOLS AMSTERDAM HOLLAND BLUE DELFT MINIATURE COLLECTOR HOUSE # 32 and #39 SEALED .  Made for Henkes Distilleries Holland.
Back in 1952, KLM began giving its first-class passengers a gift of a miniature Delft Blue pottery house portraying a historically or architecturally significant Dutch building. Because there were rules and limits regarding the value of gifts to passengers, the airline filled the houses with gin so that they were technically not gifts but free cocktails that just happened to be served in souvenir containers.
New editions of the souvenir houses were created on and off for many years, until 1994 – KLM’s 75th anniversary – when the airline commissioned a bonus catch-up batch of miniature houses so that the number of souvenir houses in the series lined up with airline’s age..
One is empty and one still has the liquid in it.
KLM Royal Dutch Airlines’ Delft Blue miniature houses are highly collectible.
Great condition no chips or cracks
