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!

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair. The poster was likely trimmed, but we don't know from what size, because we are not sure what it is (see above). It had many creases, tears, and stains throughout. Someone backed it onto linen and performed some restoration to the above defects, but you can clearly see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
