Using vibrators to cure hysteria is news to me, as is the green paint having arsenic in it.
I am curious, did the doctors themselves dole out the hysteria treatment?
I didn’t know they had vibrators in the Victorian era, what was that late 1800’s right? They did have batteries, they could make a wind up sort of thing too.
1883 was the year Joseph Mortimer Granville the “father of the modern elctromechanical vibrator” wrote a book about it.
These early vibrators became popular among the medical profession and were used for treating a wide variety of ailments in women and men, including hysteria, arthritis, constipation, amenorrhea, inflammations, and tumors; some wounded World War I soldiers received vibrotherapy as treatment at English and French hospitals in Serbia.

Ancient China had vibrators at least as early as the Ming Dynasty. IIRC it was a reaction between gold and mercury that would make the ball shake.
