It's WHAT?! Uranium Glass

Imagine, you are living in the early 1900s. You are very lucky today, because your husband has given you a beautiful new sugar bowl. He dropped the last one and it smashed, so you are pleased to have a new one. This one is a beautiful clear green glass, with delicate cut glass designs on it. This vaseline glass is so pretty and delicate, and you just love it. It does have a few odd qualities, like the occasional glow, but that isn't anything to worry about.

They're Really Quite Beautiful - Glass Movie Advertising Slides

Imagine, it is the early 1920s and you are going to the movies. It's so exciting, going to the big movie theatre, and watching the lights dip. Then, a movie starts to play. Magic! It isn't very long, and there's no sound, just a piano being played but it's so exciting. After all, you've never seen a movie before! You also know there should be more to come, with another movie being prepared for showing right now. In the mean time, there is a magic lantern showing advertising pictures.
