Lipstick + Dynamite (TV) (1965)


«By the way, has the television film titled "Lipstick & Dynamite", been screened on the English TV Network? This film is now beeing shown all over America via TV. To my knowledge it has not yet been screened on the Australian TV Network.
This film features a special wrestling match at Newark, New Jersey, between former Carnival Booth boxer, Mae Weston, and former World Wrestling champion, Mildred Burke.»
End of my quote, from the letter sent by a person living in New South Wales to a friend in England, August 22, 1965.
This piece of old news shows how much we lack true information, on a documentary aired 50 years before the first, and without explicit mention (in the publicity I've seen so far) to it's origin.
Does anybody have more info on the original document? Has it been preserved in the action scenes edited into the present film?
