American Express Travelers Cheques
Definition of TRAVELLERS' CHEQUES”
The system of Travellar Cheques was originated in 1901 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 ander the trade name of AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVELERS' CHEQUES the word Travellers' being spelled with one "1" The advantage of the Cheques was so apparent that other banking institutions adopted the system.”
