I'm not a great historian, but I know what history I like.
Case in point, the German photo studio Atelier Manassé that made erotic collages back in the 20s and 30s. Several of those involving women in kinky size scenarios.
Here's a few of them.

Cigarette girls were a staple of most nightclubs. Young women who'd go from table to table selling cigarettes and other odds and end to the clients.
Here's a more literal Cigarette Girl.

The "tiny threatened by bugs" trope was not invented in our lifetimes.

Here's a slightly bigger gal than the ones in previous shots. I'm a sucker for vintage nudity; the size element just adds a little to it.
A smaller lady on a skull. Or maybe she's the same model from the last shot slowly shrinking atop Yorick.
There's a "sweet ass" joke to be made, but I am far too dignified to make it.
I hope she enjoys her hot tub. Don't worry, it's clearly had a chance to cool down.

If sailors can turn manatees into mermaids, I guess scientists can turn snails into shellmaids.
This little fairy needs to keep her skirts off to avoid a fire hazard.
Candles on conifers -- it's kinda amazing Europeans survived.

I had my doubts this was from the same studio, but a little digging tells me it's from almost 20 years after the first image in this thread.
I applaud the work they did with this, but I wonder if the placement of the arm was self censorship.

Getting back to size tropes that have been around longer than anyone reading this has been alive we have "tiny in a piece of jewelry."
I can think of many members of the community who'd be proud to wear her prison.

The title "My Little Mouse" might need some explaining.
The tiny lady is shown inside a live capture mousetrap that was in use at the time. I've never seen one in real life, but the kids' board game Mouse Trap has basically the same design.

A better picture of the trap itself.
"My Little Dog"
Shrunken Person As Pet -- another size trope older than we thought.
The limitations of the era are on full display here, but they tried dammit. Still a better size story than Downsizing.

This one reminds me of the fairy photography hoax that was in the news in the late teens/early 20s last century.
Much more NSFW than those, but still reminiscent.

I assure you no butterfly ladies were harmed in the making of this photo.
I'm a sucker for expressive faces and the look on her tiny face is probably my favorite part of this one.

This gives me an idea.
A recently shrunk woman can't find work at her size. She decides to cam a burlesque act. Her stripper roommate loans her some money to pay the bills and use to fan dance.

A rare instance (for this studio) of the giant's face being visible and the tiny's not. I haven't been able to confirm it, but I think it's from the studio's later years after the War.
Simple but beautiful.

The title I've found for this one is "Helping Hands." I can only assume they're trying to help her out of her great great granny panties.
A rare SFW size collage from this studio. Wouldn't you like a little chauffeur for your Model A?
A little lady and her tiny frog pal getting the tree decorated before Santa slides down the chimney.
And I'll end this thread with a woman with some big boots to fill.
Come for the vintage size smut, stay for the weak dad jokes.
