A group of very scarce mounted souvenir albumen photographs shot at the World’s Columbian Exposition in 1893 when patrons carrying small Kodak cameras were required to pay $ 2.00 license fee to bring a camera onto the grounds and no cameras or tripods able to shoot larger than 4 x 5 in. images were allowed. Most visitors bought the printed photo album versions wealthier ones would buy entire souvenir photo albums filled with Arnold images and yet others could buy them as individual mounted shots depicting their favorite or preferred venues. The 1893 Chicago World’s Fair ran almost six months featured grounds and gardens laid out by Fredrick Olmsted covering 630 acres and a Midway skyline dominated by the 250-foot Ferris wheel designed by George Ferris which could carry 2160 patrons when fully loaded. The “On the Midway” photo shows the Ferris wheel still under construction which much of the structure still clad in scaffolding. Others depict throngs of visitors individual exhibits and some Buildings just newly finished such as the U.S. Government Building featuring scaffolding off to the side for future installation to be completed. Arnold 1844-1927 was prior to the Fair an obscure Buffalo NY photographer who had been initially contracted to photograph the construction of the 1893 World’s Fair but proved to be an excellent architectural photographer so so became the Chief of the Fair’s Dept. of Photography.
