A pink of history

Late at night, I was watching a documentary about Elvis Presley's life during the summer of 1956 and in there I found that he had a pink Cadillac; he was someone who was well ahead of his time in fashion and also as a whole, I thought to myself, then I had this curiosity about what more traveling did the color pink did throughout history.

 170 A.D??: Catholics uses pink candles on the 3rd Sunday of December. The color pink, also called rose during those time, represent as an emotion filled with joy and happiness.


17th century: The color name "pink" was depicted from a flower called "Pinks".

1910:
1955:  Elvis Presley bought his first Cadillac which apparently repainted in the color pink. Interestingly, Elvis repaired his pink Cadillac soon after it had caught fire from inside the brakes.

1991: A pink ribbon was used to symbolize breast cancer awareness from the Susan G. Komen Foundation.
2000: The punk rock singer Pink came onto the scene with her first album "Can't Take Me Home".
