About Christopher Stoll
This site mainly showcases my collection of historical facts, artifacts, and ephemera. But, I may also throw in a few current events that I feel are of some historical value, or just some interesting internet curiosities.
I tend to write longer or more technical posts on my blog. I also sometimes use Facebook and Twitter. And, if you are looking to hire me then you might be interested in my LinkedIn profile. Maybe you are just here because of some strange image I posted, and in that case, stay and enjoy the menagerie of historical material.
