Marx, Groucho

Secretary

The inscripton of those Groucho Marx photographs are done by a secretary

"Hi - The GROUCHO is Groucho's handiwork, but I'm afraid the inscription is my own. I had no idea I was such a skilled forger at 20! I was Groucho's personal secretary and archivist, and one of my duties was to bring Groucho a stack of photos to sign. He would take a black Sharpie and sign GROUCHO on them, and then, as requests came in, I would personalize them. Sorry to disappoint - but you may want to adjust the price substantially downward as a result. Best - Steve Stoliar, author of RAISED EYEBROWS - My Years Inside Groucho's House."

Groucho's personal secretary and archivist personalize those photographs from autograph requests through the mail.  reference: Steve Stoliar, author of RAISED EYEBROWS - My Years Inside Groucho's House.
