Lincoln at Cal State University East Bay
We are proud to announce that Color of Lincoln's photographs have been accepted into the Special Collections at the California State University East Bay - Hayward. In addition, a display of Color of Lincoln photos has been erected for the Lincoln birthday anniversary by the History Department in Meiklejohn Hall on the 4th floor at the Hayward, California Campus.
I'm ever amazed at the coincidences I encounter as part of the Color of Lincoln. In 1910, another Mr. Eaton, Edward Bailey Eaton collected photographs of Abraham Lincoln for the book Portrait Life of Lincoln. Here, one hundred years later, another linkage of Abraham Lincoln to another Mr. Eaton. I still ponder if I am related. - B. Eaton

Robert Todd Lincoln
Born August 1, 1843, Abraham Lincoln's eldest son was a Harvard graduated lawyer, Secretary of War, and U.S. Minister to the United Kingdom from 1889 to 1893 under President Benjamin Harrison. He was the only Lincoln child to live to an adult.
Nicknamed "Bob", he served as general counsel for George Pullman and serving as Pullman Coach Company President in 1901-1911. In 1911, he became chairman of the board. He died at his mansion, Hildene, in Vermont on July 26, 1926.
Color of Lincoln is nearing the end of the first edition publication. Based on past demand, our current marketing campaign will likely run out of the first edition book soon. This means that you can seize your opportunity to own this first edition of Color of Lincoln now.

WHAT A DIFFERENCE A YEAR MAKES !
Last year, the world only knew A. Lincoln by the black and white photos from the 1850s and 1860s. In March, 2009, Color of Lincoln changed all that and there was a new vision of Lincoln made public on the 200th anniversary of Lincoln's birth. "Color of Lincoln" was embraced by the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and joined the bookshelves of Lincolnphiles like Presidents Clinton and Obama, Harold Holzer and Justice Frank Williams.The Color of Lincoln project also became the only resource to be used in the only Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial collectible made by the Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial Commission - the limited edition Bicentennial Inaugural t-shirt. This year the color photos of Lincoln were reproduced for government offices and Lincolnania collectors.
I would like to thank eveyone who has supported the project through the purchase of "Color of Lincoln" and by spreading the word that we can now see Abraham Lincoln in color.

Many thanks for these wonderful comments:
~"Thanks so much for your excellent "Color of Lincoln", which I will mention in my Lincolniana." Hon. Frank Williams, Chief Justice, Rhode Island Supreme Court & Chairman, The Lincoln Forum
Harold Holzer, Co-Chairman Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial Committeee and Lincoln author
~"What a fantastic collection of Lincoln photos in color." Ron Reitveld, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus - Cal State University Fullerton and Lincoln Scholar
"Love the work! You seem to have mastered photo restoration and enhancement to a degree unmatched anywhere else. ... I can only imagine how many hours you've put into these images. It's a great service to history buffs like me." (J. F. -West Linn, OR )
~" I just purchased my second copy of the "Color of Lincoln" ... Congratulations on this magnificent book and best wishes for much success. I am the great granddaughter of Lincoln's photographer, Samuel G. Alschuler and I want to thank you so much for including the photographs of Lincoln taken by Alschuler in the book. My children and grandchildren were so excited to see the photos in your beautiful book."
~"I love the color photos and the path you have taken to tell the story of the person - Abraham Lincoln. I have found your content on his personal life thoughtful and seemingly well supported by first hand material…bravo for that. " (SR)
~"A unique high quality item" (rated 5 stars on Amazon) (RS)
~The “Color of Lincoln” offers an extraordinary view of this historic American. Bryan Eaton has done an amazing job of bringing Abraham Lincoln to life with his painstakingly detailed rendition of the original Lincoln photographs. Adding color to the Lincoln portraits serves to “complete” the man by affording that touch of life that makes him real and so much more than just a dusty archival photograph. This is a beautiful work of art. Thank you for bringing Lincoln back to life for us to understand in a new and exciting way!" (MH)
~"Color of Lincoln is a most welcome addition to my Lincoln library. It was obviously a labor of love. I wish I had thought of it, but if I had, I wouldn’t have known how to do to it. I am most struck by the enhancement of detail that the addition of color allows, both in up close portraiture, as well as the greatly enlarged portions of panoramic shots. This deserves to take its place alongside the classic Lincoln photo books compiled over the past 100 years. " -(MG)
~"I just received the book yesterday, and it is beautiful! "- (L.D.)
~"Great photographs!" (Ted)
