Vintage Electric Massager with Box

This item is a vintage electric massager, likely dating from the mid-20th century, possibly the 1950s or 1960s, given its aesthetic and construction. The main body of the massager is a vibrant sky blue plastic or bakelite, tapering slightly from its wider top to a narrower base. A distinctive feature is the beige-colored, ribbed 'massage head' at the top, which appears to be made of a hard, possibly rubberized or plastic material designed for tactile stimulation. Immediately beneath this head, the housing narrows and is encircled by a yellow plastic or bakelite ring, followed by another segment of the blue body. Further down, there's a chrome or polished metal band separating the upper and lower sections of the blue body, adding a touch of visual appeal. The bottom section of the massager is also blue, terminating in a chrome-plated base with several visible ventilation slits, suggesting an internal motor. A cream-colored electrical cord, appearing to be original, is neatly wrapped around the upper part of the massager, indicating it's an electric device. The cord itself shows some signs of age, with possible discoloration or minor wear. The massager is presented within its original, albeit somewhat aged, cardboard box. The box is an off-white or light beige color on the inside, with visible marks and possibly some staining from storage or age, particularly on the inner front flap. The exterior of the box, visible along the top edge, has a blue trim. The overall condition of the massager itself appears relatively good, showing no obvious signs of significant damage like cracks or chips, though its operational status cannot be determined from the image. The design embodies a classic mid-century utilitarian aesthetic, combining functional design with a pop of color.
