In the early 20th century, girls working at the Waterbury Clock Company faced death and disease from exposure to radium in the workplace.

This photo appeared in a 1938 newspaper, with the caption "Her left arm gone as result of radium poisoning, Charlotte Purcell demonstrates how doomed radium workers pointed brush tips for painting luminous watch dials, thus contracting dread disease."

The Lincoln Park Home in Chicago is an eclectic and curated modern home featuring interior design by Cari Giannoulias.
During World War I, hundreds of young women went to work in clock factories, painting watch dials with luminous radium paint. But after the girls — who literally glowed in the dark after their shifts — began to experience gruesome side effects, they began a race-against-time fight for justice that would forever change US labor laws.
It’s almost easy today, a century later, to laugh about the questionable medical inventions of yesteryear. But another hundred years from now, will people be laughing at the harmful products you and I use today? Here on MessyNessyChic, we’ve become quite familiar with the generation that brushed its teeth with radioactive toothpaste and that fell for the radioactive quackery…

During the early 1900s, radium was once considered more valuable than gold. Radium or radon laced water was called "liquid sunshine" because it was considered to be a magical elixir that could not only promote health and vigor, but prolonged life. One rather famous product was known as Radithor which was heavily promoted by a millionaire steel tycoon named Eben Byers. A sportsman and U.S. amateur golf champion, it was Byers physician who urged him to take Radithor to help heal a recent sports injury. Byers was so convinced of its health benefits that he readily consumed up to three of the 2.2-ounce bottles a day. He eventually ended up consuming close to 1,400 bottles at $1.00 each between 1928 and 1930 before eventually dying in 1932 of radium poisoning at the age of 51. By then he had not only lost his zip but most of his teeth from bone decay, his body was covered with abscesses and he weighed 92 pounds. The Wall Street Journal's headline "The Radium Water Worked Fine Until His Jaw Came Off" was essentially the death knell for all radium products. This poster is 17 inches wide by 22 inches high, vibrant orange and generous black ink lushly printed on parchment stock.

1918 was the last year of the first World War. With it began a change from wartime austerity to freedom in dress and fit and color. Both women's and men's 1918 fashion were at a pivoting point, lasting until 1922 when the Roaring Twenties changed things again. For women, fashion was looser, with shorter hemlines
