In the 1951 restructuring, it was renamed "Advanced", and survives to
this day. When it was first closed to new issues at the end of 1952,
FCC still kept it on the books. That made a big difference in 1968 and
1969 when the IL changes happened, because Advanceds had a lot more
'phone space than Generals after those changes.

This is probably what you mean but no new Advanced Class licenses are
issued any more. If you have one, you can renew indefinitely, but no
more new ones.
