Brunswick Chalk

The suppliers of raw materials may have used lead pigment, but the manufacturer (Tweeten) never changed their recipe. Some are polarized.

I have some pre-flag for sale if anyone is interested in experiencing for themselves.

I've also heard the pre-flag masters has lead in it.

I bought 12 cubes a year or so ago and compared the pre-flag to the current and there is ZERO difference. I had a couple top players, one a bona-fide HOF'r, tell me that the old stuff had mercury in the mix. Well, that is BS. The ONLY thing i can tell is that the grain size is a little(tiny is more like it) different but i'd guess that no two batches have exactly the same grain size. I'm a Magic user now. Less dusty and sticks better to tip.

Yep. I emailed him once and he said exactly as you stated.

Yeah, rumors and conspiracy theories are a lot better than any truth. It is funny how someone can come up with that kind of crap and it gets repeated over and over. Lead, mercury ... jeez.

Hey, I'll throw in uranium. How about spreading that. Master chalk is made in Area 51.
