Date Sold 11/24/2009Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Danish Movie Poster (measures 24 1/2" x 33 1/2") (Learn More) The Prizefighter and the Lady (released in other English-speaking countries as "Every Woman's Man"), the 1933 W.S. Van Dyke romantic love triangle nightclub boxing sports melodrama ("See Primo Carnera, Champion, and Max Baer, Contender in their first ring battle"; "Girls! There's a new passion in your life!"; about an unknown boxer who is discovered by an old-timer while working in a bar, and he becomes a heavyweight contender, and he meets the girlfriend of a gangster, and he marries her, but then she suspects him of being unfaithful, and she goes back to the gangster, and he turns to drink, but can he pull himself together in time for his championship fight?) starring Myrna Loy, Max Baer, Primo Carnera, Jack Dempsey, Walter Huston, and Otto Kruger. Note that, in a very reasonable casting move, MGM hired real-life heavyweight boxers Max Baer and Primo Carnera to play the stars of this movie, so that they would look realistic in their fight scenes! Max Baer apparently did a pretty good job acting, and a year after this movie was released, he had an actual championship fight against Primo Carnera, which he won by knockout! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Erik Frederiksen Condition: good to very good. There are light water stains in the white background at upper right and there is tattering and some small paper loss around the edges of the poster. There is a light horizontal crease across the middle and minor creases and scuffs throughout the poster (more so around the edges). The poster's defects are mostly confined to background and border areas and after linenbacking by a professional restorer or talented amateur it will look very nice with little restoration paint on it!
