You definitely do not know these brothers. These guys are basically the forerunner of the Three Stooges, starting in vaudeville and transitioning to stage and then film. Starring in some of the best comedies of all time, this group are celebrated as an iconic representation of how comedy then is still funny now.
Groucho, probably one of the best quick-witted comics of all time. Chico, the lovable con man who was also a phenomenal piano player. Finally, Harpo, the silent workhorse who could charm you with his harp playing. These three men together made one of the best comic trios of all time...
