This can be done by the Depositor signing his own name in the deposit-book at a post office.
The admission of the signature can take place:
a) In the presence of and with the consent of the Payer;
b) Without the intervention of the Payer.
In the first case the Payer confirms the authenticity of the signature, in the second case the Depositor has to establish his own personal identity.
3.—The Deposits.
The smallest deposit is 50 kreutzers, larger deposits must be a multiple of that sum.
In order to render possible the saving of smaller sums than 50 kreutzers, Post Office Savings Cards have been issued.
Post Office Savings Cards are cards imprinted with a postage stamp of 5 kreutzers, and having the necessary room to fasten on further stamps; these cards are sold at all Post Offices, and by all postage stamp vendors on payment of the value of the imprinted stamp. Such a Post Office Savings Card with stamps fastened on to the value of 50 kreutzers will be accepted at the Receiving Offices of the Post Office Savings Bank as a deposit.
One and the same depositor can only be permitted to bring for deposit three Post Office Savings Cards during one week, either singly or at the same time.
