American Express, $50 travelers cheque, 19xx (1950s), serial P37010803, signed by passenger Mary Gomez, ex-Malone. With case: 12-1/2" x 8-1/4" x 2". American Express travelers cheques salvaged from the Andrea Doria are quite scarce. To have a nearly complete high denomination one with such clear passenger's signatures is a real rarity. Some minor edge degradation and staining is almost entirely confined to the margins, and although the design is somewhat faded, the cheque is fully legible. With original display box, salvager's certificate, and booklet. Pedigreed to the collection of diver Bart Malone, past curator of the Museum of New Jersey Maritime History. Recovered from: Andrea Doria, sunk in 1956 off Massachusetts
