Hands up anyone else who just searched for a book with that name from that time period!
I went to AbeBooks – and I found it!
“Salt Water Taffy (or) Twenty Thousand Leagues Away from the Sea: The Almost Incredible Autobiography of Capt. Ezra Triplett’s Seafaring Daughter” by June Triplett. Published in 1929, which gibes with the date on the strip.
