Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned three examples of this 1962 Japanese re-release poster, and they have sold from $549 to $775! It has a completely different image from other Japanese Casablanca posters and also from almost every other Casablanca poster from any country (note the prominence given to Ingrid Bergman). Note also that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good to very good. The poster has black marker writing on the back that slightly bleeds through to the front at upper right in the pink character at top (see our image). It has tiny tears at lower left, some very minor fold and border wear and a few light creases around the edges. It is otherwise in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
