Thompson was a pin-up artist from the 1940s to the 1950s (at least). Originally an assistant for Earle MacPherson, who made yearly calendars for Brown & Bigelow, Thompson took over the position in 1951 when MacPherson was stricken with polio. He also drew for the John Baumgarth Company, and his best known work, See Me Swing My Baton, was hugely popular, with millions of matchbooks printed with that image alone! Thompson also did illustrations of vehicles and If anyone knows more about this person, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Artist: T.N.
