Amerloan · Express® Travelers Cheques
Definition of TRAVELLIES' CHEQUES-
**The system of Travellize Chognes 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 at the same time the convenience of local currency. The Company registered the cheques under the trade name of AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVELERS' CHEQUES' the word "Travellers' being spelled with one "1". The advantage of the Chequea was so apparent that ather banking institutions adopted the system."
