It has a completely different image from other Japanese Casablanca posters and also from also every other Casablanca poster from any country (note the priminence given to Ingrid Bergman) Condition: very good. There is a very light horizontal crease across the poster at upper and lower center from it being stored with posters that were tri-folded. There is a dot of discoloration at upper right in between the first two Japanese characters and there are some tiny creases along two portions of the right edge (see our image). None of the tiny defects are very noticeable or distracting when the poster is displayed and otherwise the ultra rare poster is in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
