Lupin III: Legend of the Gold of Babylon (1985) dir. Seijun Suzuki/Shigetsuhu Yoshida, Tokyo Movie Shinsha

Checking back in with the vanishing of Americana, and our next chapter focuses on bank checks. Again, an odd thing to be nostalgic over but at least this is something that is in danger of vanishing.
We open with a history of checks. Seems some people were against them, with one subject holding off getting one until the 1980's.
The chapter ends with the idea that people might be one day never use them again and I can see that. Credit cards and the phone are both cutting into checks as of now and I could see them going away someday. Not right now, but for now I'd definitely put this under 'going'.

So to you lucky handful that have stuck around, check them out.
