American Express Travelers Cheques“

Definition of TRAVELLERS' CHEQUES-

ສ

80.85

25 11/16

The system of Travellers' Cheques was originated in 1891 br the American Express Company with the object of creating a form of travel currency which would give the holder the security of at 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 advantage the word "Travellers' being spelled with one "I". of the Cheques was so apparent that other banking institutions adopted the system"
