Could anyone post a pic of a razor with and without end caps?

I've seen enough razor porn on this site already
.As much as I've heard people say their razors are missing end caps, I don't know which part that is. Either my razors all have their endcaps, or I don't know what I'm looking at.
pics because im unsure as well
Schick Krona with end cap
Other side without end cap.

Thanks so much. So, now I know the Sheraton I just bought has no endcaps. It obviously does not affect functionality. Amazingly enough, I just checked all of my tto's and all of them have encaps intact.
I have a feeling that there are a lot of razors whose endcaps did not survive the years. I assume they were just soldered on?

For what it's worth, Sheraton aren't supposed to have end caps. It is exactly how it is supposed to be.
Endcaps did not appear till 1946. The models without endcaps have been plated where the endcaps should be and have a "finished" look. Those that have endcaps, anything made after 1946, will have a dull or tarnished look where the endcaps use to be. They were usually soldered on, although some models had a one piece assembly if I'm not mistaken.
As previously stated, the sheraton didn't have endcaps, so yours is good. Nice looking razor

Sweet! I'm a bit obsessive compulsive, and it was kind of driving me crazy that my razor was missing its endcaps. Not that I would have gone nuts looking for another one or anything...
I have spent too many years in retail- when I read "end cap" I imaged the section of display area that runs perpendicular to a row, generally about 3 feet wide, where you place impulse buy items.
