"The Revigator was intended to add radioactivity (radon) to drinking water. Water without radioactivity was 'devoid of its life element.'
The glazed ceramic body of the jar has a porous lining that incorporated uranium ore. Water placed inside the jar would absorb the radon released by decay of the radium in the ore.
Advertised as 'an original radium ore patented water crock,' it sold in the hundreds of thousands between 1924 and 1930."

@jalefkowit This just inspired a thought experiment/game to play: “Would RFK Jr. snort coke off of it?”
In this case I expect he would jump at the chance.

@jalefkowit I see Revigator and subconscious adds a hyphen to make revi-gator which my brain turns into Revision Gator. It’s an alligator that reviews and revises books to ensure they’re age-appropriate for children.
