Don’t tell FB… but y’all get to see this first. List of noncompliance from Luminous Processes Inc in Ottawa IL, a company which painted radium dials. This is from late 1978😱

the sad case of the #radiumgirls… a 1978 meeting between the city of Ottawa IL, Luminous Processes Inc, the Nuclear Regulatory Committee, and State of IL Health Dept.
This page shows comments from women in the audience- former workers of LPI, which had closed just months before.

me and my work bestie make everything a two person job… taping down elements in an accessioned scrapbook? I fold the document tape into triangles and she sticks the papers down ✨
and yes, it IS necessary!
