“The system of Travellers' Cheques was originated in 1901 by". the American Express Company with the object of creating a form of travel currency which would give the bolder the security of letter of credit and at the same time the convenienes of loca currency. The Company registered the cheques under the trade. name of 'AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVELERS' OREQUES.** the word 'Travellers' being spelled with one "1”). The advantage of the Cheques was so apparent that other banking institutions adopted the system.” ́
