Dr Glossop will see you now!!

"The Vitalator"

What a fantastic find. I love old interesting gadgets from the last century and this vintage medical appliance is no exception.

It is, The Vitalator. A medical aid utilising high frequency ultra violet light to alleviate, a myriad of ailments, allegedly. 

The attraction for me, is that it is partly made from Bakelite.

How cool that something made in 1938 containing glass attachments can survive?

If only this thing could speak what devilish tales would it tell.

You could buy a number of extra attachments for this device for all parts of the body.

I suppose I am a sucker for anything in a nice wooden box.

Thanks for looking. Do you have any interesting things like this?
