  1. It’s the infamous Aus Gang. Often seen in railroad stations and other public places. They got the name by telling Jews and others to get out. Though their behavior was a bit gruff, they were snappy dressers. Especially that Chaplin imitator in the foreground. Oh he had the look down pat, but the guy didn’t have even a smidgeon of comic timing.
