I can't find a match in Petard for these poincons for either Klingenthal or Chatellerault - there are a number of Bs including Bick as mentioned by Jim. The star above - if that is a star - usually indicated the inspector had been promoted to 1st class.

Jean Binck page is at.

and Klingenthal is at:

Hope that helps.

Thank you so much CC! The bit about the star above the initial is key and fascinating to know. Links help too, its been a very long time since hearing much from Jean Binck. Wish he wrote here.
