Been reading The Radium Girls... give it to me straight...
I have collected about 6 radium dial clocks to go with my uranium glass collection. (Most of which I have attached pictures of here).
They all appear to be in good condition, and once I took them home and placed them on my shelf, I've hardly touched them at all. The shelf is right beside a window in our living room, and we keep the window open most of the summer.
Do I need to take more precautions? Reading this book has gotten me a bit more paranoid about the possibility of paint flaking and somehow getting out of the glass fronts and into my body, and some things on this subreddit have me more paranoid about the radon gas the radium makes. Please give me all your knowledge, and sources are greatly appreciated. I want to honour the women who painted these dials, by respecting these clocks.
