SAVANNAH HOTEL Bank Draft Check Dated 1953 - Savannah, Georgia Hotel EPHEMERA

Item Description

SAVANNAH HOTEL BANK DRAFT CHECK

 

 

This item is a hotel bank draft check from the Savannah Hotel in Savannah, Georgia that is dated December 18, 1953. It's made out in the amount of ten dollars. The draft features an illustration of the Savannah Hotel on the front.

The way I understand it, the hotel made these drafts available to their customers so that they could be given cash in the days before ATM machines. The customer would sign the draft and the hotel would give the amount of cash stated on the draft to the customer. The amount given would then be transferred from the customer's bank account and placed into the account of the hotel. This customer's bank was the Atlantic National Bank in Jacksonville, Florida. The draft was hole punched when it cleared the customer's bank and the draft was then returned to the customer similar to the way a canceled check is returned. A neat collectible for collectors of hotel ephemera.

The buyer pays $8.75 for USPS Ground Advantage (First Class Package) shipping.

I will mail this item with a cardboard liner to prevent the item from being damaged while in transit.

U.S. buyers only please.

Other Instructions:

I am an active seller on Unisquare. I visit Unisquare at least once almost every day to check my listings so don't be afraid to make a purchase. I am not a set it and forget it seller.

Comic books and magazines are not eligible for shipping by Media Mail because they contain advertisements. I will mail single comic books bagged and boarded and taped to a section of cardboard larger than the comic book. This is placed inside a Flat Rate Priority Mail envelope and mailed for $11.95. I can mail up to twelve regular size comic books placed inside a Gemini Flash Comic Book Mailer by Priority Mail for $12.25. This will be mailed inside a Flat Rate Legal Size envelope. The United States Postal Service has gone insane on their shipping rates and it's hard to estimate shipping costs when listing an item because the seller doesn't know where the item may be mailed when it sells. This is the reason I am forced to resort to shipping by Priority Mail Flat rate mailers.

If you are purchasing multiple items, please wait for me to send you a PayPal invoice before making your payment. It will allow me to combine your items into one package and will save you money on the shipping charges. Thanks!
