Such beauty

[@smokeypuppy417]

Pretty sure this is in the 20's.

[@christophermikrowelle7093]

Can not spot any Swastika or cars younger than 1929. I think the film is from the twenties, not thirties.

[@jimm6095]

The films are actually 1920 - 1929? Mislabelled?

A thorough and splendid read, In The Garden of Beasts, Erik Larson paints a vivd picture of life in and around the Tier Garten from the eyes of the US Ambassador during Hitler's rise in the 1930's.

It looks like that had many middle class people. Something that America didn't have. Beautiful place to live until the devil arrived.
