    Bakri,
    That’s a great looking old bike though I’m not sure it’s a transportfiets. It looks more like a city bike with an unusual kruisframe. In any case Maxwell was an Amsterdam company that built excellent bikes; mostly heavy-duty transport bikes and trikes.

    I actually own the only Maxwell bikes I’ve seen that are not transport models. It is my understanding that they were owned by the family of the owners and I purchased them from an elderly colleague. The bikes I have probably date from the 1950′s but your bike looks much older.
