A polarizing plate is provided that has excellent suitability for polarizing plate processing and that, even though it is a thin film, has excellent suitability for the production of a liquid crystal display device from the viewpoint of curling. The polarizing plate includes a first protection film, a polarizer, and a second protection film in this order. The first protection film contains a synthetic polymer, has a thickness of 30 mum or less, has a coefficient of elasticity in a TD direction of 2 GPa to 2.5 GPa, and has a humidity dimensional change rate in the TD direction of 0.1% or less. The second protection film has an evaluation value expressed by Expression (2) shown below of 7.0 to 11.0. Expression (2): Evaluation value = coefficient of elasticity of second protection film in TD direction (GPa) / humidity dimensional change rate of second protection film in TD direction (%) × (thickness of second protection film (mum) / thickness of first protection film (mum))2 × {(30/ thickness of polarizer (mum))}1/2 |
