I have a belly dancer sitting in lutus position on a wooden disk, there's a metal crank underneath, when you turn the crank, she gyrates! My grandmother got this as a gag stocking gift back in the 50s or 60s. I was always fascinated by it as a child. I have the box for her too, but the box is missing the lid. the box has circus tents in the background and a carny guy saying "She wiggles, she twists, hurry, hurry." It also says :Another gay Style Novelty, Hollywood, CA. The box also has a picture of her on it. She's topless with harem pants and a face veil.
I have two now since my husband found one on eBay and got that for me.
You can't help but sing the Snake Charmer song while you turn the crank.
Sorry, I thought I had a picture of this somewhere, but it's not on my PC--I'll have to take another one.
Anyone else ever see these?
