Motorcycles, a movie projector and even a 1980s robot named Topo are among the unusual items in the new “Valley Memories” exhibit at History Park.

If you’ve ever gone through boxes in your garage, you’ve probably found some pretty odd and interesting items — old concert T-shirts, a Girl Scout uniform, maybe a “monkey wearing a fez hat” candle that you don’t even remember stealing from a New York bar. It’s all stuff you’d never part with but wouldn’t exactly put out for company.

It is a truly eclectic show, with early 20th century motorcycles, miniature steam engines, beaded gowns from the 1940s, a collection of matchbooks from San Jose businesses long since lost to history and a movie projector from the old Saratoga theater. There’s a case devoted to San Jose’s soccer history and another filled with vintage radios.
