The National Museum of American History collects artifacts of all kinds—from gowns to locomotives—to preserve for the American people an enduring record of their past.
The Museum has more than 3 million artifacts in its collection. Information and photos of selected objects is available in the online collections database. The database is a work-in-progress and new items will be added regularly. A separate database covers archival collections.
