Charming and original EFSI 302 Commer Van in KLM livery, 1/64 scale, a beautiful piece of Dutch diecast heritage that will appeal to both EFSI collectors and aviation history enthusiasts. This example is in good condition, with minor, age-appropriate wear that contributes to the authentic appearance of this vintage model.
The Dutch manufacturer EFSI (European Manufacture of Social Institutions) holds a unique place in the history of model cars. The models were crafted in sheltered workshops, where craftsmanship and social responsibility went hand in hand. EFSI vehicles are known for their solid metal construction, playful simplicity, and vibrant colors, and are today beloved collector's items thanks to their recognizable style and unique history.
The Commer Van that EFSI used as a base is a representation of the compact commercial vehicles that were widely used in transport and support services in the 1960s and 1970s. The KLM version offered here is particularly special, reflecting the corporate colors and image of Koninklijke Luchtvaart Maatschappij (Royal Dutch Airlines), the icon of Dutch aviation. At the time, KLM operated various service and logistics vehicles at airports, including small vans for baggage, courier services, and internal transport—precisely the type of vehicle EFSI included in its miniatures.
This EFSI 302 Commer KLM features the characteristic blue livery with white accents, instantly evoking that nostalgic "airport feeling." The metal body, simple yet sturdy wheels, and recognizable Commer shape give the model the typical EFSI look that collectors love. Despite its age, this example remains in good condition, a testament to the robust quality with which EFSI produced its products at the time.
A beautiful piece of Dutch toys and aviation history in a single model, ideal for collectors seeking something with charm, character, and a clear link to KLM's golden years.
