American Express Travelers Cheques
Delaition of TRAVELLERS', OHEQUES—
“The system of Travellers Obegues was originated in 1871 by the American Express Company with the obfoot of creating a form of travel carany which would give the holder the security of a letter of credit and at tas same time the convenience of local currency. The Company registered the cheques under the trade name of AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVELERN CHEQUES' the word 'Travellers' being spoiled with ons 'J'. The advant gs of the Cheques was so apparent that other banking institutions adopted the system."
