Archive of 46 original albumen photographs sized from 3 x 6 in. up to 4 x 6 in. all of the images smaller than 4 x 5 in. on albumen paper stock many w/ embossed photographerâ€™s stamps several w/ photographerâ€™s imprint w/in negative some w/ small rubber stamp at lower fore-edge of verso as well as pencil manuscript annotations identifying subject inventory nos. w/ in negatives of several a few w/ evidence of having been previously mounted a couple w/very slight dog-eared corners 1 w/ closed tear at lower fore-edge a couple w/ image evidencing poor process chemicals still an exceptional group of images. This set of photographs was created by two different Illinois & Missouri photographers at the 1901 Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo NY -- both of whom had lived and worked in Chicago at the beginning of the 1890â€™s offering reasonably priced â€œunofficialâ€ vernacular images of the 1893 Columbian Exposition Worldâ€™s Fair followed by the Pan-American Worldâ€™s Fair. The fair featured a range of acts and attractions featured at the Exposition which included Bostockâ€™s Trained Wild Animals â€œA Trip to the Moonâ€ â€œCleopatraâ€™s Templeâ€ Henry Roltairâ€™s illusionist show â€œHouse upside downâ€ and the Battle of Missionary Ridge Cyclorama. Many of the Exposition buildings including the prominent Electric Tower were covered in approximately 2 million 100 watt incandescent light bulbs producing an incredible display when turned on each night attracting millions of people who visited. This Exposition marked a defining moment in Buffalo history with the city becoming the focus of international architectural artistic technological and industrial attention at the Fair. It is sadly largely remembered as the scene of the tragic assassination of President McKinley. Vernacular souvenir photos are quite scarce and these have an unusual sharpness in light of the fact that like the 1893 Columbian all were prevented from bringing in tripods to shoot the Exposition. One of the photographs captures African natives from the Midwayâ€™s â€œAfrican Villageâ€ which incorporated Africans from the colonial empires of Great Britain Belgium Germany & France along with participants from Georgia who were â€œstagedâ€ in the â€œOld Plantationâ€ representing the enslavement of African-Americans in North America. Another Black History exhibit included was the â€œNegro Exhibitâ€ previously exhibited at the 1900 Lâ€™Exposition Universelle in Paris depicting the accomplishments of formerly enslaved people and languished at the far back of the Manufacturers and Liberal Arts Building. Samuel Lyman 1854-1939 was an intrepid tinkerer junk dealer and photographer who shot souvenir photos for his customers during the Columbian Exposition in 1893. Two of his sons Joseph Lyman 1887-1953 and Harry Lyman 1883-1940 became successful photographers in Kansas City MO during the Roaring 20â€™s. Mackson fl. 1885-1910 immigrated from Russia into Chicago in the 1880â€™s and operated a small photo studio there until about 1900 before relocating to Kansas City and St. Louis MO during the opening decade of the 20th Century operating photography studios in both cities.
