The preface includes a statement elaborating on the issue of lead being contained in miniatures.  Ral Partha announced that starting March 1993 they would begin a step by step transition to Ralidium, a type of lead free pewter that the Federal Government has deemed safe for use in eating utensils and canning food.  Units shown in a price list would be understood to be manufactured with Ralidium, while those not would be understood to contain lead.
