I have not been able to confirm that meaning of "pinkie."

It is so well known that Hollywood made a movie about it.

Pinky - (1949) Jeanne Crain as a black woman living in a white world. Jeanne Crain, Ethel Barry More, Ethel Waters, William Bendix. Dir. Elia Kazan.

kholt, LB described it best. Since it was a slang word, at the time, there may not be much reference about it on Google.

Pinkies are the smallest mice you can buy for snake food. Our snake is up to fuzzies. When he gets up to "small dogs" he's out of here.
