    Description

    Vintage 1950-1960s "twist" style exerciser- similar to the fit board, but way smaller.
    Probably one of the most fun exercise-gadget fads of the era was inspired by Chubby Checkers’ 1960 dance craze “The Twist.” Manufacturers put together the simplest machines imaginable, made of rotating pieces of pressed particle board, and gave them fun brand names like Slim-Twist Exerciser, Twist Board, and Gyro Slim ‘n’ Trim Exerciser (item for sale). You could put on a rock’n’roll 45 and twist your waist away with a li’l less effort than simply doing the dance.
    It measures 8 x 9 inches, while the ball-bearing base that turns measures 7 inches in diameter. This would make a great collectible for the vintage fitness or 1950s collector... Or you could use it while you twist!!! Thanks!
