Brooklyn Museum has the same shot with a narrower field of view.

The Columbian Exposition was held in Chicago in 1893. See
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World's_Columbian_Exposition
which has a photo of the ferris wheel that was rebuilt for the St. Louis World's Fair in 1904.

Great old photos. I read a book about this Columbia Exposition and all the problems they had trying to get this up and running. Very interesting book.
