It seems as this is no longer on the dial. If you look at last year's perpetual model there is no A to be found. (unless you include the A in April and August).

Yes the signature A has not survived. There are 6 A's on the dial though. 6 on the back and 1 on the crown.

He was a man that was not liked by De Gaulle nor Vichy Govt so why is he so referred to warrant such a large collection of LE models? Is there some charity like Laureues that is a beneficiary of these LEs?
