[QUOTE="UncleChuckTX, post: 390986, member: 154"]Nice find. I think they were probably made for Sysco, however, not by Sysco. I would guess these are advertising / promo / reward and giftware merchandise that the companies ordered from a glassmaker. I've found a couple of other examples. This seller thought their American Airlines glasses might be by Kosta Boda. I googled the AA logo, and that one was used from the late 1940s to the early 1960s.
