Tip Top Comics #6, 4 of 4

Here's more forgotten comic strips from United Features' Tip Top Comics #6 in October 1936. The other three installments are here, here, and here.
Here are some examples of Looy Dot Dope, a creation of the great Milt Gross (though these were unfortunately done by someone else, probably his assistant). The only information I can find about bottom strip Colonel Wowser are a few other strips and a Tijuana Bible...
… And here are some examples of Billy Make Believe...
...plus some Alice In Wonderland strips b/w Knurl the Gnome...
...plus a couple Peter Pat strips by Mo Leff, assistant to Ham Fisher...
...Frankie Doodle...
...and finally How It Began by Paul Berdanier.
I have no idea who did this or what it's from. The signature looks like “Bob Brinkenhoff”.
Strips by readers. I wonder how many, if any, are still alive.
I think this strip was done for magazines.

Comics on Parade #15

One of the first comic books, that just reprinted Sunday funnies, most of which aren't remembered. Here are excerpts from the 15th issue in June 1939.

We do remember Li'l Abner, though.
Not many people remember this feature, though. Dudley T. Fisher, Jr. is somewhat known by comics afficionados.
But everyone remembers Nancy, even if not in its early stages.
There's not as much info on Billy Make-Believe...
...or Alice in Wonderland
Danny Dingle was also a character in a childrens' book series.
