American Express Travelers Cheques
Definition of TRAVELLERS' CHEQUES-
The system of Travellers' Cheques was originated in 1801 by the American Express Company with the object of creating a form of travel currency which would give the bolder the security of a 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 word 'Travellers' being spelled with one "1". The advantage of the Cheques was so apparent that other banking institutions adopted the system." -
Quoted from. Pitman's Dictionary of Banking by Wm. Thomson.
