Do you know the origins of the phrases “private eye” and “We Never Sleep”? An early operation was to safely deliver the newly elected U.S. President Abraham Lincoln to Washington, D.C., in light of an assassination threat. Pinkerton detective Kate Warne was assigned and successfully delivered the president to the U.S. capital city by changing the President's itinerary staying awake throughout the long journey. As a result of the notoriety of this success, Pinkerton National Detective Agency adopted a solo open eye as the logo. This was the first reference of a private eye, meaning an eye of a Pinkerton private investigator (PI). We Never Sleep has been our slogan ever since that success and accompanied the open eye on the logo. See more on the history of ‘We Never Sleep’ → https://pnk.tn/s5s
