I don't know whether it was the case then, but it's certainly the case
now that British small-press publishers often get the actual printing
done in the USA - even before the recent collapse of the dollar it was
often cheaper to get the books printed overseas and shipped to the UK
than to get them printed here. (That's one reason why British RPG books
are often cheaper in the USA than here.)
