While that was pretty old-fashioned, it reminded me of this later one:

...from 1962 instead of 1960.

Like that earlier prototype, it was a rigid capsule with arms and legs protruding,
so the astronaut could bring an arm in and scratch an inconvenient itch.

Difficult or almost impossible to use inside the capsule module.
