American Express Travelers Cheques
Lefinition of TRAVELLERS' CREQUES
"The system of Travellers' Cheques 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 eredit 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 "i". The adjantage of the Cheques was so apparent that other banking institutions adopted the system.””
Quoted from: Pitman's Dictionary of Banking by Wm. Thomson.
