The Rob Jolly Tech Collection
 

Rob Jolly, Class President, Tech 1970, is THE major collector of Tech Memorabilia.  He has the ONLY complete collection of Yearbooks going back to 1922.  His collection includes Tech newspapers, numerous articles, historic photos, and "anything related to Tech" going back to 1878, the year Tech began as the "Hope School for Civil War Children".  Rob, who lives in Germantown, has a great love for our school and graciously volunteered to share it with us.  This website would not have been possible without his collection.  Thank you Rob. 
 

Rob asks all Techites to remember his Tech Collection whenever they come across their old Tech Memorabilia.  He would love to add your memorabilia to his collection - that is, ANYTHING related to Tech.    Email:  ActingRob@aol.com
