Up for sale is an extremely rare find. This F & E Check Protector is in excellent condition for its age. Made and guaranteed by The Hedman Company of Chicago Illinois USA, written on the backside along with patent No xxxxxxxx which was issued on February 22 xxxx. This model most likely dates to the xxxx's. This tabulator style check protector was designed to prevent alteration of checks once hand or type written. The amounts are stamped into the surface of the check with exact dollar amounts, from depreesing all those lovely keys, and cranking down the manual handle on the right. The F&E Check Protector Company, is still producing equipment of this type to this very day! Newer versions of this machine are still used in banks today!! Great nostalgic show piece for an accountants office or financier!!
