Rolly Crump is best known for his design and artwork for Disney. In September 2004 he was presented with the prestigious Disney Legends Award for his extensive work for the company.

Back in 1960 he illustrated satirical style posters for the the Esoteric Poster Company based in Seattle, America. The style and wording of the posters were a dig at the popular Sixties Beatnik movement and their drug culture.
