I figure they just guess on the colors. Why else would they have
President Lincoln wearing a brown vest with a blue suit?

They desecrated some iconic photos...

I think something similar was shown here some time ago. In fact some of
these look familiar. Wasn't an "artist" colourizing well-known b&w photos
and trying to pass it off as her own art?

Anyway, I think it's wrong to do this and your description, Mark, is
appropriate. 

Pat Metheny's thoughts on Kenny G's debacle were pointed out to me several
years ago. Love 'em!

cheers,
frank

It's the photographic equivalent of Kenny G!

(Kenny G is a rather lame pop-jazz sax player who infamously released
a version of Louis Armstrong's "What a Wonderful World" with his own
sax solos overdubbed. http://www.jazzoasis.com/methenyonkennyg.htm)
