Even before they had any feature films to refer back to, Pixar were still dropping in Easter Eggs to their past in Toy Story.

At the very start of the film, when Woody collects the toys to make his daily announcements, he sets up his podium in front of a bookshelf, on which are books named after some of the studio's early shorts: The Adventures of André and Wally B, Red's Dream, Tin Toy and Knick Knack. There's also a nod to John Lasseter as an author.

Later, they paid similar homage in Toy Story 2, where the shorts feature during the sequence in which Hamm speeds through the channels looking for the Al's Toy Barn commercial. They're blink and you'll miss them, but they're there.
