The Signature


This signature should be just as you intend to use it in all your

dealings with the bank. If, for instance, your name is John Henry Smith,

you may write it J. H. Smith, J. Henry Smith. John H. Smith or John

Henry Smith, but whatever form you adopt should be used all the time.

Once having adopted the form, it should be maintained in exactly that

way. The only excuse for variation from your usual signature is when

presenting checks or other paper made payable to you. In that case,

supposing you had adopted the form J. Henry Smith for your regular

signature, and the check is made payable to John H. Smith, you should

first write on the back of that check John H. Smith, and immediately

under this you should place your regular signature.
