American Express Travelers Cheques
Definition of TRAVELLERS' CHEQUES-
***
251
The system of Travellers Cheques was originated in 1891 by the American Express Company with the object, of creating a form of travel currency which would give the holder the security of a letter of credit and allthe same time the convenience of local currency. The Company registered the ebeques under the trade name of AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVELERS' CHEQUES' the word Travellers' being spelled with one "" The advantage of the Cheques was so apparent that other banking institution's adopted the system.”
Quoted from Pitman's Dictionary of Banking by Wm. Thomson.
