Title: Beatles Vibrating Massager
Post by: I am the Paulrus on April 25, 2012, 05:10:52 AM: Beatles Vibrating Massager

Saw this vintage item from the days of Beatlemania that someone posted on Facebook. The things they would mass produce and slap the Beatles' names and likeness on them.

No doubt. <shrug> I never said they were rare, just that it seems odd to me. It still seems unusual (again, just to me) to have a band name affiliated with a personal massager -- but that's me looking at it from a 2012 point of view. I see them in all sorts of catalogues but never one associated with a musical artist.

I was just trying to be funny (obviously failed). No offense meant.

LOL As for the legitimacy, the world may never know for sure. Yet another bit of Beatles lore.
