Name

Uh, all you vigilant editors seem to have missed the tacked-on fake part re: horse genitalia and Tesla? One has to wonder if the artist's name is given or assumed. It's rather comic and the comedy is congruent with his artwork. --Nehushtan (talk) 16:55, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently not. The NYT obit gives his full name at birth, so it must be his given name. Nehushtan (talk) 21:19, 26 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There is a wealthy Jewish family named Merkin in New York City. Given that he was born in Brooklyn, it wouldn't be too surprising if he were related to them. --Fafhrdrn1154 (talk) 21:06, 17 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

references

I removed the refimprove template today since it appears many references have been added since the template was added in 2010. Jooojay (talk) 07:04, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
