Some soldiers pension cards are rubber-stamped 'Noted for Novel'.
I cannot discover what this is. [The card I have is for a soldier who was killed-in-action.]
An interesting query, I'll look forward to hearing any suggestions.

I've tried to find examples of Pension cards that have this stamp upon them, which is not that easy, there are some on the Western Front Association site. There is also a theory that the notation N/N may also be "Noted For Novel"
This is probably absolute drivel, I get the impression from the few I've seen and I wonder what is on Luxor's? Those stamped "Noted for Novel" could require further investigation?
