The Bank Ad 1978
The Bank Ad, 1978

In 1978, ATM cards weren’t even called that yet. National Commercial Bank and Trust Co. was going by the moniker “The Bank,” and was one of the first banks to offer an ATM card, which they called the Bank Key.

Not too long after, National Commercial would drop “The Bank” and become “Key Bank.” And then their ATM card was the “Key Bank Bank Key.”
