Found an Aristocrat with a gold slider, my other one has a silver slider.  I need to find out if they made both variations or if the ones with silver sliders were repaired at some point.  :dunno:
Here's my latest though.

I've never seen an aristocrat in the flesh, so is it a brass frame or a plating?
Don't get too serious, just enough will do.

Here is my Aristocrat.

When I look inside the rails it looks like a brass frame.

I don't know if you saw in a previous post, but the "engraving" is actually etching that was done by Earl Christy.

Thank you, VICMAN, I did see the post about the etching. I just wasn't sure of the base material. Does the etching give a different feel with wet hands?

You are welcome! :cheers:

The etching gives a slightly grippier feel than the regular frame. :D

Well, if an Earl made it, it sure is an Aristocrat!
