Great structure combined with a round and long finish gives lasting enjoyment. Drink upon release or cellar up to ten more years.” (AbV 14.8%, pH 3.73, TA 0.530 g/100mL)

THAT REMINDS ME OF: The Marx Brothers.

That would be Chico Marx, Harpo Marx, Groucho Marx, Gummo Marx, and Zeppo Marx. They were all indeed brothers, the sons of Minnie Marx, who pushed them into showbiz. Minnie had assisted her younger brother Abraham Schönberg (Al Shean) in getting his vaudeville and Broadway act going, and she would become her sons’ manager, hiding her last name as “Palmer” to keep people from realizing she was also their mother.

You may not have realized it, but those also aren’t their real first names. Shocking, I know. Groucho was Julius Henry, Harpo was Adolph, Chico was Leonard Joseph, Zeppo was Herbert Manfred, and Gummo was Milton. Together, the brothers would perform on vaudeville circuits until 1923, then transitioning to Broadway after getting on the bad side of theater owner E. F. Albee. With the advent of talkies in the late 20’s, the brothers made their next jump into the movies, where they would remain until the end of the 40’s.
