- Lot Description
[QUACK MEDICAL APPLIANCE]. Dr. McLaughlin?s Electric Belt. San Francisco: Dr. M. A. McLaughlin, 1900. Electropathic waist belt with metal segments and elastic segment. Metal segments with total length of 19?. One would wear this belt after charging it with ?galvanic current? in McLaughlin?s office. Electricity would supposedly be discharged during sleep, curing all sorts of ailments. Belts and cures of this nature were popular in the early twentieth century, before medical professionals revealed them to be useless, or even harmful. Very good.
