Probably a big "No Smoking" sticker under the paint

I was just hoping it wasn't that radioactiv paint used on the gages.
Ra-226 Convoy lamp Switch
Radium was used to make gauges glow in the dark.
Ra-226 Army Jeep Console
Note that many Army Jeeps were sold to the civilian community. Note also if the glass on the dials is broken, thus allowing greater opportunity for exposure to radium on the dials.

Take a look at this site:
