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



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

But what are the two guys on the outside playing (or pretending to play)?
Are these harmonicas with some sort of attachment to project the sound?
