Chalk from the 1970s is not so interesting, but some from the '20s or so can run to $300 for one cube. Right now on Ebay, there is a piece of round National chalk offered at about $40 (but that's a little high).
 
wonder what year and how much mine are worth.

...
I've seen the round Manhattan chalk go for about $50-$100 per single piece on Ebay. One piece in its own small box went for $300. I see that brand in the BBCCo catalog for 1916, but with a different style:

By 1942 or so, the only brands offered by Brunswick were Clik and Willie Hoppe. If I had to guess, I'd say your chalks were from 1930 or so.
