Bob Emrico behind the camera. The other two clowns ……their names I do not know. I do know this routine was funny because Bob would change the standard camera gag and make it his own. His ad-libs were unbelievable, I think he missed his calling..he should have been a comedy writer. Between Bob Emrico, Harry Ross, Gene Randow, George Perkins and Mark Anthony I learned that timing was all important in any kind of comedy. I put a little of each of them in my chimp act.
