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 holder the security of a letter of credit and at the same time the convenience of local currency. The Company registered the chequer under the trade name of AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVELERS' CHEQUES ' the word 'Travelleri' being spelled with one "1". The ad antage of the Cheques was so apparent that other banking institutions adopted the system.”

Quoted from Pitman's Dictionary of Banking by Wm. Thomson.

Issued in G810, G820, G#50, and G$100, and 2-5, « email, and 2-10 denominations bound in
