Not much seems to be recalled about the Murphy Brothers, except they were active in Arizona in the 1930s.
George Murphy functioned as a promoter, running shows in varied parts of Arizona while using Wildman Bill Zim (also spelled Zimm) , Pat Fraley, Buddy O' Brien and more.
George's brother, Harold Murphy worked as a referee and occasionally wrestled as Millionaire Murphy using possibly a Million Dollar Man routine done long before the WWE thought of it.
The Murphys pushed Buddy O' Brien as top heel and may have come to regret such, for he was legitimately suspended a couple of times by the Arizona State Athletic Commission due to his antics and a talent for causing riots. O' Brien never learned and was evidently a heel in real life. He died after an altercation with police.
Of the Murphys, little other info seems to be available, at least where I have looked.
