Thomas Edison made silent films of the Eskimo exhibition (THE 
ESQUIMAUX VILLAGE ) at the Pan-American Exposition in 1901.   The 
films can be viewed at:    <http://memory.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query>

If that doesn't work go to  <http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/index.html> 
and type     
  thomas Edison eskimo   
in the search box.  Five items will appear on the next page,  three 
are Edison's films.    There are no films of the Columbian Exposition 
because the movie projector was not invented yet. 

<http://www.ric.edu/rpotter/eskimoes.html>  Posters for  'Esquimaux' 
on display.
