The film likely dates to the late 1920s or early 1930s based on the fashion featured in the film. While the family is unknown, it appears this film is one of many travelogs made by this couple as they appear in other travelog films through Europe. The other films in this series, shot by the same family, can be seen at: https://youtu.be/HE86fI0PzC0 (XD65474) https://youtu.be/oW4Q6xecWPQ (XD65454) https://youtu.be/r3w3iK7joE0 (XD65424) https://youtu.be/sDl2A83AQFA (XD65414) https://youtu.be/E8QXXoTWTis (XD65434) https://youtu.be/AizgbQ6o1hM (XD65404) https://youtu.be/s5P8mfXZ2mA (XD65504) Street scene around Budapest; bronze statues and sculptures in public parks and Szabadság Square (0:08).
