Since Larry Harmon owns Laurel and Hardy, I've decided that I own the Marx
Brothers!

I want to see Marx Brothers comic books published under the title "Eric Perlin's
Marx Brothers".

I insist that any future performances of the play "Groucho: A Life in Revue"
must be re-titled "Eric Perlin's Groucho: A Life in Revue".

From now on, any time an actor does a quick Groucho impression on a TV show,
permission must be obtained from me, and the closing credits must say "Groucho
Marx character (C)copyright by Eric Perlin. Used with permission."

I also demand that the newsgroup about the Marx Brothers immediately be re-named
"alt.comedy.eric-perlin's-marx-bros".

I have just as much right as Larry Harmon to plaster my name all over something
I had no real connection to!

If you're prepared to take on Corbis and the Roger Richman Agency, go
for it:

Whether or not you agree with the way Harmon markets the images of
Stan and Ollie, he did enter into a contractual agreement with Stan
Laurel and Lucille Hardy.

Harmon doesn't do anything with L&H anymore that's why most all kids
today are clueless about who Stan and Ollie are. They all know the 3
Stooges though!
