"Amersfoorts Secretarishuisje nieuw Delftsblauw KLM-huisje

AMSTELVEEN - Ter ere van de 89ste verjaardag van KLM op 7 oktober is een nieuw Delftsblauw huisje verschenen. Voor huisje nr. 89 is de keuze gevallen op het Secretarishuisje aan Muurhuizen in Amersfoort. De Delftsblauwe huisjes worden sinds de jaren vijftig door KLM tijdens intercontinentale vluchten aan World Business Class-passagiers uitgereikt.

De bekende KLM-huisjes - allen replica's van historische Nederlandse panden - zijn inmiddels in binnen- en buitenland een geliefd verzamelobject.

Het eerste 'huisje 89' werd dinsdag 7 oktober overhandigd door Bram Grber, directeur KLM Nederland aan Albertine van Vliet-Kuiper, de burgemeester van Amersfoort."

Number 89 is a replica of the Secretarishuisje in Amersfoort.

How can an airline be apparently so creative when it comes to little ceramic houses and so uninspired when it comes to food?

Maybe the food would taste better if they served it in ceramic houses?

Welcome #89
I like the houses and keep collecting. Even my wive does not consider them to be just dust catchers.
