  Thanks for the link!  It was informative...
  I believe I either have or had toggle switches with the little glass dots filled with Radium.
  Now I'll have to search my switch collection (once I find it).

Google for
a book by William Kolb and Paul Frame, titled " Living with Radiation: The First Hundred Years"

So now lets all get busy on our treasure hunt and see if we can find any of these items with radium paint. I want 1 of each, except clocks. Watches yes. Bob
