American Express Travelers Cheques
Definition of TRAVELLERS' CHEQUES...
*CIA
The system of Travellers Cheques was originated in 1001 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 under the trade Dame of AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVELERS' CHEQUES ' the word "Travellers' being spelled with ons "1". The ad antago of the Choques was so apparent that other banking institutions adapted the system.
Quoted from Pitman's Dictionary of Banking by Wm. Thomson.
