A postwar pin up style version of Toots, Tom's love interest, is shown here. She wears the very latest in late 40's fashion, including Hollywood inspired sunglasses.
The title is a spoof on the popular seaside confection, salt water taffy.
Jerry speaks, or, rather, shrieks in this cartoon. So does Tom.
As always, there is beautiful and precise attention to background detail, from the clouds and sea horizon to the beach umbrellas, cabanas, piers and lifeguard towers that are shown in the distance.
This short is an extra feature on the DVD for the film Flipper.
