I found this page (http://the-tw-king.com/pages/trading-cards), which shows the Teenie Weenie trading cards that were included in Monarch Toffee. So cute!
The Teenie Weenie's were a syndicated comic series by William Donahey. He was approched by Monarch Foods wanting to tie his little people into the advertising of their products. I met him in the '60s at his studio in Chicago. As we talked, he sketched a frame for me that I still have displayed.
Hello! Here you'll find vintage images, mostly from my flickr photostream. If I blogged one of your images and you would like me to remove it, please drop me a line. Thank you for your visit!

Any idea why everything is "teenie weenie"?
I can't be sure, but I think these are characters from a comic of the time.
