It depicts a woman in a blue work shirt and a red-and-white polka-dot bandana flexing her right biceps while looking out at the viewer, with the title "We Can Do It!" in a speech bubble at the top of the poster. No more than 1,800 copies were printed.

The image was used to promote feminism and other political issues beginning in the 1980s. </p> <p style="text-align:left;"><small>Poster credit: J.
