The birthday

The date previously given at the head of the article - 1 June 1903 - comes neither from the sources cited nor her birth certificate. The sources say her birthday was 6 November not 1 June. Furthermore only one of the two citations has 1903 (the other has 1895 “not 1903”). Her birth certificate says 6 November 1895. --Melchior2006 (talk) 05:07, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Move to London in 1938

Sources 2 and 3 say, erroneously, that in 1938 Margit moved to London. She didn’t, she continued to live in Vienna, where she was arrested and imprisoned in 1944. In the papers collected by her first husband, held at the Monastic Archives in Heiligenkreuz, private records show her wartime life in Vienna. --Melchior2006 (talk) 05:07, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Times obituary with errors

On 9 Feb 1978, the Times published an obituary with several errors:

The 1903 birthday
Margit Angerer's purported retirement from the Vienna Nationaloper in 1938. She stopped singing there in 1935, but 1938 sounds better, as it suggests she was somehow Jewish or resistant to Hitler and driven out only for political reasons.
She and her "husband" SKS leaving Vienna in 1938 (deeply erroneous, because they married in 1949). SKS did leave Vienna for London in 1938, but he did so alone; Margit Angerer stayed on in Vienna after 1938. --Melchior2006 (talk) 08:24, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Alternative picture?

Just found this online:

https://www.theatermuseum.at/it/onlinesammlung/detail/391586/

I think it is a great image but are we allowed to use it? It says this is “copyright” the museum that owns the print, surely that can’t right? The museum would seem to have appropriated an out of copyright work from a century ago. 212.236.40.78 (talk) 06:39, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
