Victoreen Cutie Pie Geiger Counter Nov 2016
Whilst looking around for something in the chem stock room where I work I opened a drawer and saw this antique Geiger counter. Before I ran back to my class I snapped a few pictures - it is just so 1960s cold war - it could be a prop in a space movie. But best of all it is called the "Victoreen Cutie Pie". There is something so delusional - when you go out to survey the nuclear holocaust wasteland you will have your Cutie Pie at your side. Last time it was calibrated was 1969. Great prop for Weird Al's "Christmas at Ground Zero".
