groucho and me (part I)

my great-grandfather!


"groucho marx was the best comedian this country ever produced.
he is simply unique in the same way that picasso or stravinsky are."
-- woody allen


caricature by al hirschfield


3/5 of the marx bros. -- harpo, chico & grouch


you bet your life -- with announcer george fenneman


i never forget a face, but in your case i'll be glad to make an exception.
