Harpo Marx

HARPO MARX d1964. American comedian and harpist and the second-oldest of the Marx Brothers. In contrast to the mainly verbal comedy of his brothers Groucho and Chico, his comic style was visual, being an example of vaudeville, clown and pantomime traditions. In all of his movie appearances, he wore a curly reddish blonde wig and did not speak, instead blowing a horn or whistling to communicate. He frequently employed props such as a horn cane constructed from a lead pipe, tape and a bulbhorn. He died in California aged 75 on September 28th 1964
