The Teenie Weenies

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Teenie Weenies was a long-running comic strip created and illustrated by William Donahey. The strip was inspired by Palmer Cox's The Brownies, and was done in the form of text with a single large picture. It first appeared in black and white in the women's section of the Chicago Tribune, on June 14, 1912. Color versions soon appeared in the Comics section, and the strip moved to the Sunday comics section in 1923. Several books of comics were also published by Beckley-Cardey and Reilly & Lee. Donahey retired the strip in 1969, upon his retirement.
