Margot Hatto

 * ... that after escaping Nazi Germany, Margot Hatto used her husband trouser press to start a greeting card business? Source: Royal Opera House: "Margot started her first venture in the production of greeting cards to enable her to help look after her parents. Her first greeting card publications were prints of black and white photographs taken with her Leica camera. These were dried using her husband's trouser press." Escape from Nazi Germany comes from Flood 2011: "in 1934 [Arthur Hatto's] teachers summoned him back to London. At this time he had met in Switzerland a medical student from Düsseldorf, Rose Margot Feibelmann, whom he would marry in 1935. As she was from a Jewish family—her father, Max (b. 1874), was senior cantor of the main synagogue in Düsseldorf—their move to Britain probably saved her life and the lives of her parents also, for these would follow them to Britain in March 1939."

 * Symbol possible vote.svg Date, size, refs, neutrality, copyvio spotcheck, GTG. Minor problem is that lead is too short and doesn't indicate why the subject is notable. The bigger problem is that as I explained on talk I doubt the subject is notable. Discussion is pending, but I may end up nominating this at AfD. Now, if the consensus is to keep and the lead is expanded, I will change my mark to accepted, but this may also be deleted, and until this is resolved, this nom should be put on hold. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 09:00, 9 April 2018 (UTC)


 * , I've responded on the talk page, but the basic point is that not only did she start two successful businesses after escaping Nazi Germany, selling her products to well known stores, but that her photographic collection is one of only seven to have been acquired by the Royal Opera House. Broadening the count to include the 19 special collections acquired by the Royal Opera House from individuals, at least 13 of the individuals have Wikipedia pages. --Usernameunique (talk) 22:26, 9 April 2018 (UTC)

 * I appreciate the tick,, though the current AfD means this article will not be able to go forward until that is over. If you would like to weigh in there, however, you should feel free. --Usernameunique (talk) 16:19, 12 April 2018 (UTC)
