Although they carry Lincoln's name, Abraham Lincoln was not involved. This popular toy was invented in about 1916, and undoubtedly carried Lincoln's name because the former president lived in a log cabin (and we are told he built it himself), so the toymaker figured this clever name would help everyone to remember the toy when they bought it. Lincoln logs allowed children to build things the way Lincoln did, making replicas of log cabins and other famous residences.
