Like the famed cherry blossoms come with the Japanese springtime, Babysan came with the Occupation, and it is hard to say which brings more color and charm to the small Far Eastern country. One is inclined, however, to stake his yen on Babysan as she is in bloom all year around. Babysan was a comic created by American artist Bill Hume while he was stationed in Japan in the 1950s. The comic depicts American sailors interacting with a pin-up style Japanese woman and the title comes from the word "baby," an affectionate term Americans use, and "san" which is an honorary term used by the Japanese. It translates literally to Miss Baby. I hope you enjoy this collection of Babysan cartoons I’ve provided for your enjoyment…
