Re: [Harp-L] cornball harp, but what kind of harp or harp device?

[Joe and Cass Leone <leone@xxxxxxxx>]

Bij Dorus appears to have been one Tom Manders and was a cabaret  
comic from the Netherlands, much in the vein of Cantinflas (Mexico),  
Fernandel (France), Toto (Italy), Chaplin (G. Br).

Some people were 'king' back then just as today. And imitating  
Chaplin, Al Johlson, Rudolph Valentino then would be like imitating  
Elvis, Michael Jackson or Marilyn Monroe today.

I don't read Doitch. but Manders appears to have been born 1920 and  
passed away around 1990?
smo-joe
