In addition, a Lincoln Logs set has windows and doors to make the buildings more realistic. More modern sets also come with figures of humans and animals that match the scale of the buildings. The sets invoke the history of the American frontier, with such sets as the Pony Express or the Conestoga Homestead.

Lincoln Logs were invented some time between 1916 and 1917 by John Lloyd Wright, a son of the notable architect Frank Lloyd Wright. In 1918 they were marketed by the Red Square Toy Company and John Lloyd Wright Inc., of Chicago and were an overnight success. Lincoln Logs originally came with instructions on how to build Uncle Tom's Cabin as well as Lincoln's log cabin.

The architecture of the Imperial Hotel basement in Tokyo designed by John's father, which used a unique foundation of interlocking beams to make the structure "earthquake proof", likely played an inspirational role in the making of the toy logs.

The toy can easily produce a structure resembling a log cabin, hence the association with American president Abraham Lincoln (who was said to have spent his childhood in a log cabin).The toy's name may have been influenced by his father's birth name, which was Frank Lincoln Wright .
