A Little History:
KLM started issuing these miniature bottles in 1952. Due to unfair competition, airlines were not allowed to give gifts to their customers. So KLM had a few Delft houses made and filled them with gin. Naturally, their competitors complained: "KLM gives gifts to their customers." KLM said: "Are we allowed to decide how we serve our drinks? Is there a law that tells me drinks must be served in a glass?"... and that is how it all began!
