The Wonderful Antics of Harpo Marx

Harpo was given the name Adolph, but changed it to Arthur during World War I because it was too 'German'. Bill Marx (Harpo's son) once wrote anybody who has seen a Marx Brothers movie knows Harpo is a lunatic... a wild man capable of the craziest things imaginable... and even some things that defy the laws of physics. This is a compilation of some great Harpo moments from 1929 - 1949. Harpo was born Adolph Marx on November 23, 1888 and passed away on September 28, 1964 after having open-heart surgery. He was a magical character and pretty amazing Harpist. This video celebrates his unique style of comedy. Edited by Paul Hagl
