Re: Re: Harps played by Harpo

Just watched Animal Crackers yesterday, but could'nt get a glimpse of the action on the harp where the logo would be. I wonder if any of his harps are still in the family?
Yes, she likes her job, although she has her masters in computer science, and a teaching degree. GO figure!
Thanks Cathy,
Jim

Re: Re: Re: Harps played by Harpo

Hello James-
I am an old fan and family friend of the Marxes, particularly Harpo.
The only harp that remains in the possession of the family is a small practice harp (don't know the make), which is proudly displayed on a pedestal in his son Bill's house.
I own an original painting created by Harpo in 1961, which was given to me by his wife Susan in 1975. I plan to photograph it soon and share on this site.
Best,
Pat

Ask Steve Fritzman at Lyon & Healy who has Harpo's gold 23.

Re: Re: Harps played by Harpo

To Dickie: I checked with Steve Fritzmann, at your suggestion. Following is his reply . . .

Thank you for your kind email. Although Mr. Harpo Marx preferred the Lyon & Healy harp we are sad to say that we do not own any harp of his. Sorry we could not be of more help.

Sincerely,
Stephen Fritzmann
National Sales Manager
