  • Patent number: 4465306
    Abstract: A one-write bookkeeping and check writing system has a bank of shingled checks with voucher stubs retentively held by a peg board in overlying registration with a journal sheet. An employee record card for the entry of employee earnings data is folded about one of two fold lines and removably interposed between the bank of checks and the journal sheet with the voucher stubs in registration with the journal sheet. The back side of the record card has a transfer coating to transfer data entered on the voucher stub to the underlying journal sheet. The folded under portion of the record card provides a barrier to the transfer of data other than the data entered on the voucher stub.

  • Patent number: 4201402
    Abstract: A bookkeeping and check writing system enables simultaneous entry of payee and numerical disbursement amount upon the check and an underlying disbursement sheet and, when desired, a duplicate sheet such as a separable voucher sheet. The disbursement sheet has payee and numerical disbursement columns spaced cooperatively to the blanks appearing on standard commercial checks and a transfer sheet is secured in overlying position. A shield member is positioned upon the transfer sheet and supports a check thereon so that the payee and disbursement blanks are aligned with the columns of the disbursement sheet. The shield member has an aperture therein coinciding with the appropriate blanks so that, when the data is entered upon the check by a pen or the like, the pressure is transferred to the transfer sheet and any underlying sheets through the aperture in the shield member, whereas the body of the shield member absorbs the pressure of the writing implement as the remaining blanks of the check are completed.
