Abstract

An information recording-displaying card, includes: core sheet; and over sheet bonded to core sheet, including: a support including an amorphous polyester resin, and a reversible thermosensitive recording layer on the support, including: an electron-donating coloring compound, and an electron-accepting compound. The reversible thermosensitive recording layer is capable of forming coloring state and decolorizing state, with difference in at least one of the following: heating temperature, and cooling rate after heating. The over sheet is embossable in upper portion thereof, functions as image displaying section, and meets the following conditions (A), (B) and (C): (A) (over sheet's upper limit temperature for erasing−30° C.)>(over sheet's temperature of storage elasticity E′ (1.0 E+08) Pa), (B) 10 μm or less of surface waviness WCM, and (C) 1.0 E+02 Pa≦(storage elasticity E′ of reversible thermosensitive over sheet at 180° C.)≦5.0 E+07 Pa.
