Hrm. The CPSC's website isn't clear to me whether date of manufacture matters:

This makes it seem like any children's product is fair game after 2/10/09:
Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) Summary - Section 101. Children’s Products Containing Lead; Lead Paint Rule
Quote:
Lead Content Limits

The limits on the amount of lead in children’s products are phased in over the course of three years. By February 10, 2009, products designed or intended primarily for children 12 and younger may not contain more than 600 ppm of lead. Children’s products that contain more lead than 600 ppm are banned in the U.S. after February 10, 2009, and the sale of those products can result in significant civil and criminal liability. The statute provides that paint, coatings or electroplating may not be considered a barrier that would make the lead content of a product inaccessible to a child. After 1 year from enactment, or August 14, 2009, products designed or intended primarily for children 12 and younger cannot contain more than 300 ppm of lead. The limit goes down to 100 ppm after three years, or August 14, 2011, unless the Commission determines that it is not technologically feasible to have this lower limit.
But this says only products made after the dates in question need to have the certification to be sold:

Quote:
600 ppm – children’s products may not contain more than 600 ppm of lead
- February 10, 2009 (general conformity certification required for products manufactured after that date)

300 ppm - children’s products may not contain more than 300 ppm of lead
- August 14, 2009 (third party testing and certification required for products manufactured after that date)
