RN-D1 Merchants’ Savings Loan & Trust Co.

One of several styles of attractive checks and drafts from bank accounts of Cyrus McCormick, inventor of the reaper. “McCormick Reapers” is printed in bold letters across the face. This check style features vignettes of a sheaf of wheat and an agricultural scene illustrating the reaper in use.

This check was issued to Miss J.L. Wayne & Son (it is unusual to find checks of this period made payble to women).

Typical cut cancel seen in scan is entirely unobtrusive when sleeved (provided).
