The Radium will cause no problem unless you break the glass or let the baby sleep on it.  You should also be careful not to eat it as ingesting the Radium could cause serious problems.

 

I would bet that it does contain Radium.  I can test it for you if you like.

No Radium in that dial, I hope...

I just acquired this very cool UK compass from a local
estate sale.  It will look "spiffy" next to the TR9D, 
if it is indeed WWII RAF Aircraft. 
Google says it was used mid-war in fighters, bombers
using the P10 and P11.
Can our UK members confirm if the "P8" 
magnetic compass is indeed WWII RAF and
is "context correct" with the TR9D?
