American Express Travelers Cheques
Definition of TRAVELLERS OH EQUES-
The system of Travellers' Cheques was originated in 1801 by the American Express Company with the object of creating a fortn 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 name of AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVELERS' CHEQUES' the word Travellers' being spelled with ons "1", The advantage of the Cheques was so apparent that other banking institutions adopted the system."','
Quoted from Pitman's Dictionary of Banking by Wre. Thomson. "Iegued in G810, GA20, G850, and G8100, and 25, and 2-10 denominations bound in a small, handy wallet and cost only of 1 per cent, Secure your steamship tickets, hold reservations and itineraries; or plan your cruise, or tour through
