Radium was first discovered in 1898 by Marie and Pierre Curie. Its luminous glow was quickly exploited in various products, including paint for watch dials and toys, known as “Radium Dolls.” These dolls were marketed as magical and glamorous, capturing the imaginations of young girls.

Unfortunately, the manufacturers of Radium Dolls were unaware of the substance’s harmful effects. Radium emits ionizing radiation, which can damage DNA and cause cancer. As the girls played with these dolls and painted their faces with the radium paint, they unknowingly absorbed this dangerous substance.

Over time, the radium particles accumulated in the bodies of the girls who owned Radium Dolls. This led to a litany of health problems, including anemia, bone deformities, and cancer. One of the most common cancers was jaw cancer, as the radium paint was often ingested through gnawing at the dolls.

The true extent of the Radium Dolls tragedy was not fully understood until decades later. It took years for the victims to connect their illnesses to the dolls they had played with as children. By the 1950s, the use of radium paint was banned in the United States, but the damage had already been done.

The Radium Dolls Die By Die T-Shirts serve as a poignant reminder of this forgotten tragedy. They honor the victims who suffered and died as a result of their exposure to radium. These shirts also raise awareness about the dangers of ionizing radiation and the importance of protecting ourselves from harmful substances.
