Abstract
The subject matter relates to a blank check system which includes a stack of check blanks stacked in dispenser of plastic material. Each check blank has two parts connected at a fold line; the upper part being a blank check and the lower part being a duplicate or record portion. Upon partial withdrawal of the uppermost check blank from the frame to a predetermined position, the amount of the check being drawn may be entered and the remaining balance in the account may be inscribed on the next-succeeding check blank. The check may be fully withdrawn for completion, and the balance entered will be shown on the topmost remaining check blank to thereby provide a self-reconciling system of writing checks which automatically keeps a running balance.
