When did Casablanca come out?

When did Casablanca come out?
Casablanca premiered in New York City in 1942 coinciding with Major General Patton's invasion of the the Moroccan harbour town. Its nationwide release was in 1943 which coincided with the Casablanca Conference between President Roosevelt and PM Churchill. Casablanca was a B movie which George Raft turned down, and Bogie scooped it up, but the timing made it a classic.
