Just an idea, what about an old watch/clock face with glow-in-the-dark 
paint on it?
I have an old (ww2 german aircraft) clock that I took to work to check on a 
geiger counter.
My boss insisted I take it straight back home after seeing if showing 100 
counts-per-second.
I think the radioactivity from the original paint should have been easily 
stopped by a piece of paper but apparently  
it decays into other elements that do not.
A piece of paper made no difference. a 40mm thick catalogue made some 
difference, a sheet of aluminium made some difference.
I think it must be giving off a fair cocktail of alpha, beta and gamma.
