Robert Crumb's Keep on Truckin' drawing was one of those events where something seemingly trivial and passing escalates into a cultural moment.

Rather quickly, the image and phrase began to show up on posters, t-shirts, patches and badges, much to Crumb's consternation. After years of litigation, Crumb was able to secure the copyright to Keep on Truckin'. This is a vintage, licensed version of the poster in rare condition.
