Hello, I bought some clubs at a garage sale. They are old big berthas. My question is what year are they from and what does the letter designation A mean on a club? That is the only stamp on it.

A Wedge = Gap Wedge

A = approach which = gap.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Technically, the "A" stands for Approach.  And as @Shorty pointed out, an approach wedge is the same type of club as a gap wedge.

Bridgestone j40 445 w/ Graphite Design AD DJ-7
Callaway Steelhead Plus 3 wood w/ RCH Pro Series 3.2
Adams Idea Pro hybrids (3 & 4) w/ Aldila VS Proto 
Bridgestone j33 CB (5-PW) w/ original Rifle 5.5
Bridgestone West Coast 52*, j40 satin 56* & 60* w/ DG S-300
Odyssey White Hot XG #9
Bridgestone B330-RX
