Over an algebraically closed field, remove a smooth hyperplane conic C from a smooth quadric surface Q. The rulings of a smooth quadric surface generate Pic(Q)=Z2, and C has class (1,1). Picard-group localization on a smooth variety gives the quotient by Z(1,1). The restricted ruling bundle OQ​(1,0) is a generator, exhibiting a nontrivial line bundle on an affine surface.
