Commentaires : A traduire. Roll a Ray heat massage consisted of a brown plastic case with handle dates around November l948 by the Electric Cord Co. The case enclosed a light bult and two rubber rollers, which would contact the body for massaging. The light bulb would furnish heat. 

The box stated: " Use massage and penetrating ray for loosening muscles and assisting in driving fatty tissues away.

In December of 1949, the courts ordered that the devices should be modified by removing the 60-watt bulb and replacing it with a 30-watt bulb, and also destroying the labeling indicating directions and uses on the sides of the carton. 133 units were produced in N.Y. and 23  from Hartford, Ct.
