From the 1954 Three Stooges short “Income Tax Sappy” with Moe, Larry & Shemp:
Larry: How much can I deduct for charity?
Moe: Anything, take $3000.
Larry: Oh, that’s very good.
Moe: Yeah, but you got to put down who got the money.
Larry: I got it!
Moe: Oh, you’ll never get away with that.
Larry: Why not? Charity begins at home.
