American Express Travelers Cheques
Definition of TRAVELLERS' CHEQURS-
«The system of Travellers ·Choquor was originated in 1801 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 eredit and at the same time the convenience of local currancy. The Company registered the choques onder the trade name of 'AMERICAN EXPREŠS TRAVELERS" ONEQUES' the word “Travellera' being spelled with one''. The advant- age of the Chequer was so oppurent, that other banking intilations, adopted the system."!
Quoted from Pitman's Dictionary of Banking by Wm. Thomson.
