It has been reliably estimated that from thirty to fifty millions,
of dollars are being stolen annually from bank depositors who do
not protect their checks.
It may never have happened to you?yet your next check
may be raised.
It is next to impossible to write a check that is safe, unless
protected with a modern device.
Remember?that in theee days, every class of cirme Is con
stantly increasing and an unprotected check is a dangerous asset.
No matter to whom yea give your check it is not safe for it
may be transferred to another party or stolen from the mail or
get into the hands of a dishonest employee, who by using a few
drops of acid or by clever pen changing can make over your check
so that you would scarcely know it.
Do you know that your signature represents every dollar that'
yeu are worth? Is it not worth a few dollars of your money to
protect it?
Don't put this matter off anather day?but write for inter
esting literature on check protection. It does not obligate yotf at
all. A post card will do. \
We can supply you with any standard make of check writer
or protecting device for half price or less.
