Just found this one. I now have the senator, sheraton, and aristocrat. Are there any others out there?

You could start looking at the English Aristocrats. My #15 is a great razor even though similar to the '34 Aristocrat except for the plating and the case.

I would suggest the Brits aswell, I love my #19 Aristocrat, it looks like the one you won, but in a different case. Anyway is a beauty and it shaves really nice. here's pic

Nice.
What are the plating options for the British versions?

The English Aristocrats are soooo nice looking. I really want to get one in the future. I like the style handle

Check out the razors on Mr Razor's site. When you expand the photo it will tell you what the razor is and when it was made.

Thanks!

I searched some other posts about the British aristocrats. These are either gold or rhodium plated?

If rhodium, how does that wear as opposed to nickel?

Most of the English Aristocrats you'll find are mostly nickel with Rhodium plated handles. I don't know if any caps were Rhodium plated. The gold versions are much more rare and extremely expensive.

Have you thought about a GEM Micromatic open comb?

Thought about, used, and really liked. Liked it enough to attempt to acquire all the different versions!
