This is the Eldorado (though which incarnation is uncertain) in Berlin, the center of Christopher Isherwood's novels which later inspired the musical Caberet.

Oof. Wonder what happened to them about a couple decades later. ๐ฌ
I dunno about them in particular, but in general half a million Germans emigrated to the US between the world wars.
Why would you grin? Sarcasm doesn't need to be cruel. Assume they were tortured and killed. So, it's sad...
This is a grin: ๐
This is a grimace: ๐ฌ

I made a grimacing face, because I felt like they might not have fared so well in the Holocaust. Very sad indeed. But hopefully they lived a happy and long life somehow.
