  • Any one collect cue chalk?

    Hi all for the last few months I have been putting together a collection of cue chalk.

    I have enclosed a photo of my collection so far;


    its been fun getting this far, but I feel I may have got the most of the easy chalks, the vintage stuff is where it starts getting expensive.

    Anyone else have this addiction.

    A-ha... so the swine who keeps pinching our pub's chalk is revealed.

    Like the racking for it a lot. I get the odd cube in old cues I buy from time to time, I get the feeling even the older stuff is a lot more common than you'd imagine.

      I hope so, there is a guy in the states who I have bought bits off who has over 700 different chalks! I will keep my eyes peeled.

                            A word of warning from someone who has gone through it. Stop collecting chalk now before it is too late! First comes chalk, then naturally chalk boxes and then next thing you know it you are collecting chalk holders... There is no telling where it will end. I have attached three of my display cases for your viewing.
