A Dutch 1930's photoalbum with music

I found this photoalbum on a fleamarket some years ago, ive always been facinated by old photo albums and wonder who these people were, what their lives were like.
I have put a few photos from one album together with a lovely song from 1944.

@priya420 I meant the title in the video itself.

If you play the video you will see the name of the song and artist showing up right after the first title, at about 0:05

wow this almost made me cry i have a weird nostalgia to this time period lol and i was born in the 90's i must've had a past life lol but yea very nice and sent gave me chills lol =]

@missmishi08 It is not weird at all.

I don't believe in past lives but I do believe in style and taste.

The modern era lacks both of these and people look for them elsewhere.

I have now a 1930s lifestyle, I don't care what people say, I wear 1930s clothing, my house is 1930s decorated, I don't have a tv or mobile phone.

Taking a few steps back is a great thing to do.

Not everything was better back then, but a lot is worse today.

@TheMuzikanten I have several Dutch Decca 78 rpm records made in 1943 by Dick Willebrandts and his orchestra. In the 1980s Grannyphone issued a LP with all the commercial wartime recordings by Willebrandts. As far a I know, it can still be ordered at the Nederlands Jazz Archief, as well as the CD with recordings made by Willebrandts in 1943 for the Deutsche Europa Sender (DES), with American and English standards (vocals - in English! - by Nellie Verschuur and Jan de Vries)
