Alex Shear has amassed a collection of about 100,000 20th-century artifacts -- one of the world's largest. From Penzoil tin men to waffle irons, ham-can guitars to martini-shaker yo-yos, Shear's collection spans hundreds of subcultures. It celebrates not only everyday America, but American ingenuity and innovation. Delving beneath the surface of Shear's ever-expanding time capsule, future generations may just find the answer to the puzzling question, "Who were these people, the Americans of the 20th century?"
