Rare Antique Penn Art Dustless White Chalk in Original Box with Slide Lid dark wood corkscrew I'd be pretty confident thereI can find pretty much nothing out there about the Penn Art Crayon Co of Easton, PA so think the company may not have been very long lived; I found all of one listing out there anywhere, and it was for a now sold box of white chalk just like this box (listed for $120!) I have a deep visceral love for old wooden boxes of white chalk, having found a couple of boxes of "Old Faithful" previously, in boxes much like this nice to have chalk around for when
