Superman Presents Tip Top Comic Monthly #35

 KG Murray's Tip Top Comic Monthly #35 was published March 1968:


The cover is from DC Comics' Showcase #71:



The main features:

What Swings, Fiddle Strings?, originally published in Showcase #71, November-December 1967

Part Two, Act 1, of "Confederate Yankees!" Confused?, originally published in Showcase #71, November-December 1967

Act II -- Part III (or Should That Be Part III -- Act II?), originally published in Showcase #71, November-December 1967

An Eye for An Eye!, originally published in Strange Adventures #206, November 1967 

Waif of the Wilderness, originally published in The Doom Patrol #112, June 1967 

The Beautiful Witch, originally published in The Ghost Rider #11 [A-1 #75], March 1953 

The Do-It-Yourself Villains, originally published in Blackhawk #175, August 1962 

Liquid Larceny!, originally published in World's Finest Comics #50, February-March 1951

The Caveman Batman, originally published in Batman #93, August 1955

As there are no contemporaneous reprints of Liquid Larceny! and The Caveman Batman, I assume they are both recycled from their earlier appearances in Century The 100-Page Comic Monthly #2.

There are also a few filler gag strips: Private Pete (originally from Star Spangled War Stories #132, September 1952); Little Pocahontas (originally from Tomahawk #25, July 1954); and a couple of instalments of Cap's Hobby Hints (originally from Showcase #71, November-December 1967 and Strange Adventures #206, November 1967 - both of these are related to the main features above).

The advertiser's date code on the rear cover is KGM. TTC.368
