The Teenie Weenies is a comic strip created and illustrated by William Donahey ( 1883 – 1970) that first appeared in 1914 in the Chicago Tribune and ran for over 50 years. It consisted of normal-size objects intermingled with tiny protagonists. The comic strip characters were two inches tall and lived under a rose bush. They lived with "real world" size materials made from discarded objects like hats, jars, barrels, kegs, and boxes – all of which were gigantic to them. (from Wikipedia).
