The sudden breeze. The accidental rip. The unintentional underwear peek-a-boo. These are time-tested themes in pin-ups, but few artists made such a delightful subject out of them than Jay Scott Pike!

He used the National Negro Business League as a front for political activity. He successfully lobbied against disenfranchisement...
