Auto Banking comes to Minot

TV Auto Banker – 1^st National Bank – in early June, 1963 Minot was introduced to the newest, easiest and most convenient form of banking… The TV Auto Banker – featuring pneumatic tubes to deliver your transactions from your vehicle to the teller in the building – the teller and the customer could communicate by way of cameras and screens … with a push of a button the door opened, a tube was available to place your transactions in and delivered to the teller … all pretty normal now but cutting edge in 1963 … The Drive-Thru location was on 1^st Street West – just north of Central Avenue behind what is now known as Brady Marts. The last business in this location was Brays DriveThru Cleaners.
