History Detectives Sideshow Babies/Lubin Photos/Navajo Rug

Episode Description

"Sideshow Babies" Elyse Luray travels to Chicago, the site of the 1933 World's Fair, to see if a silver baby cup can shed light on whether the matriarch of a family was exhibited in an incubator at one of the Fair's exhibits. "Lubin Photos" Tukufu Zuberi looks at century old photos that may have captured the dawn of American movie-making - in Florida - and the short-lived Siegmund Lubin Studios. "Navajo Rug" Eduardo Pagán collaborates with a textile historian to discover if a Navajo weaver violated a taboo to create a rug.
