Greetings from a beginner! I am part of a team trying to restore a 1930's newspaper comic strip for possible publication. We have to use newspaper scans, and the text is often very messy. It has to be retyped, in a font as close to this sample as possible. Several fonts have been used during the span of this comic, this being the most readable.

Can anyone point me to a suitable font? Scandinavian alphabets (å, ä, ö) are needed. The font doesn't have to be free. I understand that the exact font can't be found on digital form, and the sample here is distorted.

Your best option is to check at www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/ as I did and the results were as follow:
Memorial-Regular
Tundra Pro Extlight
Penelope-Semi Bold
ITC Cheltenham Condensed Book
PF Centro Slab Pro Medium

IMO it's possible that exact type never to be digitized so you may try something similar.
