Casablanca - Claude Rains' Medals

Captaine Renault's medals
Chevalier Légion d'Honneur



1914 - 18 Inter Allied Victory Medal

1914 - 18 Commemorative War Medal
One advantage of seeing a film on the big screen, it is easier to spot detail. I clocked Renault's Legion of Honour but did not know the other two. I suppose only a Hollywood studio would have a spare Legion of Honour, but not a Croix de Guerre...

My thanks to Wikipedia for the photos.

    This is a great finding!
    I never thought the medals would be historical
