Noble-to-PSS
Style Number Conversion Chart

I'm not sure who put this together, but
I found this chart recently which allows collectors to convert
Noble numbers to PSS numbers when using newer and older precancel
catalogs. Unfortunately (or fortunately!) this isn't really
possible, since the PSS numbering system added so many new styles.
Hopefully, if you have older Noble or Hoover catalogs, this will
help you figure out the PSS number. However, you must have a PSS Town
& Type catalog to narrow the choices down.
