How great would it have been to grow up in the household of Harpo Marx?

Published caption: IS EVERYBODY HARPO?-- Children of Harpo, the silent Marx brother, don wigs and demonstrate that they, too, have happy gift of pantomime. From laugh to riot, we see Alec, Jimmy (who couldn't help peeking), Minnie and Father Harpo himself.

  2. It's amazing what a wig can do--all his kids were adopted.
