Just before the start of WWII :

Eleanor Margaret Green, Princess Viggo, Countess of Rosenborg November 5, 1895, in New York City – July 3, 1966, in Copenhagen) was an American who became a Princess in Denmark. She married Prince Viggo of Denmark, Viggo Christian Adolph George, son of Prince Valdemar of Denmark and Princess Marie Amélie Françoise Hélène d'Orléans, on June 10, 1924, in New York City.

Being an artist and shockingly unconventional royalty she recorded this record for Charity:

Record label: HMV. Publisher number: D.A. 5214
Recorded 1939
Sold in favor of the Queen's charities

Henri Gregh, Henry Fevrier; Au Jardin Charmant/ Errico Carmelo, Tosti; Ave Maria Piano Acc .: E. Selmar

She actually is very good: a nice mezzo soprano dark and very pleasant voice, lightest vibrato.

Definitely not a Florence Foster Jenkins moment.

10" 78 rpm record.

Condition: EXCELLENT pristine needs cleaning, plays  very quiet some crackle

 

A GREAT COPY

 

Eleanor Margaret Green, Princess Viggo, Countess of Rosenborg November 5, 1895, in New York City – July 3, 1966, in Copenhagen) was an American who became a Princess in Denmark. By marriage, Green became Princess Viggo, Countess of Rosenborg.


Early life
On November 5, 1895, Green was born as Eleanor Margaret Green in New York City, New York. Green's parents were Dr. James Oliver Green and Amelia Hewitt Green. Green's maternal grandfather was Abram S. Hewitt and her paternal grandfather was Peter Cooper.[1]

Personal life
Green married Prince Viggo of Denmark, Viggo Christian Adolph George, son of Prince Valdemar of Denmark and Princess Marie Amélie Françoise Hélène d'Orléans, on June 10, 1924, in New York City.

Without the legally required permission of the Danish king for a dynastic marriage, Prince Viggo renounced his place in Denmark's line of succession to the Crown, his title of Prince of Denmark, and his style of Royal Highness as was customary in the Danish royal house upon marriage to a commoner. Before the wedding Viggo, with the king's authorisation, assumed the title of His Highness Prince Viggo, Count of Rosenborg.

In connection with the marriage and her husband's new title, Eleanor Margaret Green became Her Highness Princess Viggo, Countess of Rosenborg.

Prince and Princess Viggo had no children. The couple lived at Bernstorff Palace in Denmark.[2] Princess Viggo was active in charity work.[2]

She died on July 3, 1966, at age 70 at Copenhagen, Denmark.[3]

A Quick NOTE ON GRADING AND SHIPPING:

As you can see from my feedback, I try hard to earn your POSITIVE FEEDBACK and FIVE STAR RATINGS.

If for any reason your transaction was NOT SATISFACTORY, pls contact me and I will work something out with you. YOU WILL NEVER HAVE A REASON TO GIVE ME A NEGATIVE RATING or a LOW STAR RATING.

Quick note on grading:

The Grade (Excellent to Poor, I don't give Mint) refers to the WEAR of the record. Any other defects are stated separately

When I listen to a record, I may also give it an aural grade (again E to P), and make a SUBJECTIVE judgment of the pressing quality for hiss and surface noise.
"SUPERQUIET" is basically noiseless, like a vinyl pressing.
"VERY QUIET" is an exceptionally quiet record for a given pressing.
"Quiet" is a record that is a great example without undue noise for a give pressing.

These judgments are SUBJECTIVE and will depend one the styli, phonograph etc. you use on your own equipment.

Multiple item shipping: I am happy to combine items for shipment in one parcel.

If you win multiple items, pls send me an INVOICE REQUEST to calculate the correct postage. Ebay check out will not give you the correct multiple item discount!

Records will be packed safely between corrugated cardboard in a sturdy box with plenty of padding for safe shipment.

Shipment is usually Media Mail, unless you request another service. Shipping is at your risk, I will be happy to insure items at your cost.

I charge actual postage plus a small fee for packing materials

As always, I guarantee your satisfaction. If you don't like the item, just return it, and I will refund the full purchase price.

If you are in the San Francisco area, I encourage pick-up in person.

US Domestic Shipping:

Here is a guideline for US Media Mail Shipping:

Prices below are for regular 78 rpm records. Up to about 5 records, I will ship Edison Discs for the same rates. Albums from Album Sets count as 1 record. Above that and for international shipments, it will be actual weight plus a small packing charge (1-3$ depending on size of shipment)

1 record: 4.75 – 5.50$

2 records: 6.50$

5 records: 8.00$

10 records: 12.00$

MANY MORE RECORDS: Don't worry. I safely ship 40 - 50 pounds of records double boxed in moving boxes, and even then Media Mail will probably not exceed 35$.

Please send me a message if you would like to get an estimate for you shipping rates!

I am very happy to ship records worldwide.

Please use the EBAY shipping cost only as a guideline. My actual charges are usually lower

One record usually ships for 25$ for 10" 25-35$ for most 12" records (Less for Canada).

 As always, I would appreciate any suggestions and corrections from you, pls contact me with any question.


Thank you very much, and have fun finding some great records !!!
