Esrom caravans.

These are photos of the first (I think) “Esrom” caravan we have seen.
The brand has been mentioned a few times previously by forum members.

They were built by a Mr Morse.(Esrom spelt backwards) at 143 Belmore Rd. Peakhurst NSW in the 1950's and 1960's..... this one was built in early 1960's I was told.







It had a hot water service and a shower recess

Was the van remodeled in the seventies? because it has wind out windows with a matching stone guard and door, a very modern sink a four season hatch ,new style power point, but they used slot head screws on the front rain deflector!

G'day Gerald,

I should have posted a link back to when I first heard of this van.....back in March when it was put up for sale.

If you contact Bill he might be able to tell you more about it, I think he is still stuck with it ......... (should tell him to paint the cupboard doors pink )

This tells us that Esrom caravans were being built as early as 1956, and that they produced a range of sizes from 11 ft 3 in to 15 ft.
