These beautiful images are from various issues of "En Patufet". I found them on Juan Navarro's blog: http://vinyetes.blogspot.com/ (thanks, Valerie).
' "En Patufet" (top image) was the title of an influential children's magazine in Catalan published from 1904 to 1938, and again from 1968 to 1973.
Patufet is also the main character of one of the most famous folktales of Catalan origin.
He's usually presented as a very little kid the size of a rice grain, wearing a big red barretina so that his parents can better spot him around the place.' LINK:
