Thank you all.

«Comic songs Pantagruel"
 
As for the characters in the series' comic song Pantagruel ", all, or almost all of them are taken from the same book, published by a certain Richard Breton in 1565. The text in the book is virtually absent, its main contents are 120 engravings. Dali borrowed some characters literally, some modified.
Interestingly, in the circulation of the book in 1565 was very small and it almost immediately became extremely rare. The next edition of the engravings published in XIX century. In 1823, the "comic songs Pantagruel 'published as Volume IX works of Rabelais. Then in 1869, they were released in a single volume.
