Vintage 1930s 1940s Sears Roebuck 56 Cent Refund Check Uncashed Ephemera

Vintage 1930s 1940s Sears Roebuck 56 Cent Refund Check Uncashed Ephemera

Vintage Sears, Roebuck and Co. 56-cent bearer refund check drawn on The First National Bank of Chicago. These small-value checks were issued by Sears to customers for credits such as merchandise or shipping overpayments and could be cashed or returned toward another Sears order.

This unusual example is for exactly 56 cents and features the amount prominently printed as “FIFTY SIX CENTS” with a large circular “ONLY 56 CENTS” design. Check number XE 555361. The reverse is blank with no visible endorsement or cancellation and appears to have remained uncashed. Great piece of early Sears mail-order, retail, banking and advertising history.
