The Gilbert U-238 Atomic Energy Lab
The Gilbert U-238 Atomic Energy Lab was a toy produced between 1950 and 1951. The toy allowed the user to conduct simple experiments with radioactive materials. Kit included;
- A Geiger counter
- An electroscope
- A Wilson cloud chamber
- A spinthariscope
- Four samples of uranium ore
- Pb-210 lead isotope
- Polonium
- Ruthenium
- Zinc
- various other accessories
After only a year of production, the toy was pulled from the market for obvious reasons.
It is a shame that I was only two years old at the time. I would have loved this set.
