"I'm glad you gave it the 'smiles' tag."



"That deserved it," I said to Meade. And if you go to this link, you'll see why I also said: "Keep on truckin'."

In the 1920s and 1930s, jazz musicians said keep on truckin'. You can see an example of it near the end of the 1940s cartoon Dumbo, where one of the crows says "I even saw a vegetable truck," and all the crows assume the Keep on Truckin' position. link

Here's the scene from Dumbo and the line occurs at 52 sec:

The crows do make the "stance" but it's very brief.

The crows do a lot of stereotypical strut and swagger, and I wonder if R Crumb was influenced by this. Terry Zwigoff's documentary "Crumb" did show how the young Crumb brothers were obsessed with at least one Disney movie, "Treasure Island." Also, R Crumb showed an early fascination with African America caricature.
