American Express Travelers Cheques

Dednition of TRAVELLERS' CHEQUES—

"The system of Travellers Choquos 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 socurity, of a lotter of credit and at the same time the convenience of local currency. The Company registered the choques under the trade name of AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVELERS' CHEQUES the world "Travellers' being spelled with one "L" The advantage of the Choques was so apparent that other banking, institutions adopted the system."
