Dolores – I would encourage you to consider “the Marx Brothers” and “Groucho Marx” the same answer for #4.

33

I can’t answer at least half of these, so I’d better skip this one!

No problem.

I do have a problem with Tarragon918’s answer to #8. I’m gonna take your first answer, cloche hat, instead of your second answer, bobbed hair. You can’t have both! :slight_smile:

Cloche hat is fine … especially since I see it’s getting more matches. :smiley: My daughter was right … this time. :slight_smile:

ETA: my grandmother was a “flapper” - I’ve seen pics of her dressed up in the flapper clothes, and I have a little suede, beaded purse of hers … such an interesting feud; even if you have to google for the answers, it’s great stuff to find out about! :slight_smile:
