Anthony Frederick Sarg (1880–1942), known professionally as Tony Sarg, was a German American puppeteer and illustrator... In 1921, Sarg animated the film The First Circus [and] went on to produce a series of cartoons known as Tony Sarg's Almanac. In 1928, he designed, and his protégé Bil Baird built tethered helium-filled balloons up to 125 feet (40 m) long, resembling animals, for the New York institution of Macy's department store. These creations were featured in the store's Thanksgiving Day parade [and have been a fixture of the event since then].
