The classic Patenotte bean hole guitar built for the shop of the violin maker Paul Didier.

Is there a serial number?

thanks

No, there is no serial number. Although this is pretty typical for French luthiers pre-1970. I had a 2005 Patenotte a while back and that did have a serial # but I'd imagine they didn't start doing that till long after this one was built.
