Snow White - The Story so far
There has also been the suggestion that the story of Snow White originated from the real-life story of a countess and her alleged lover, Philip II of Spain.
The countess, named Margarete von Waldeck (1553 – 1554) was supposedly poisoned at a young age, as politics were more important than real love at the time. Another coincidence – Margarete had a terrible relationship with her stepmother.
Meanwhile, the town the countess grew up in, Wildungen, was also home to a number of copper mines. The workers of whom were young children, who suffered stunted growth due to malnutrition and poor working conditions. Allegedly, they were referred to as ‘poor dwarfs’.
These findings were published in 1994 by German Scholar Eckhard Sander, who’s book Schneewittchen: Marchen oder Wahrheit? (Snow White: Is It a Fairy Tale?) noted these comparisons.

Interesting that the Metal Copper can be Toxic? and the Metal Zinc can help alleviate this ?
never knew that. Not going to use Copper Pans or take any 'Supplements' containing this
but everything in moderation...Water still flows through Copper Pipes in My House
as does Electricity. Pans and Pipes? seem to have heard that before in Fairy Tales!
maybe it was a Pan -to -Mime?
