your post inspired me to break out my 15 issue run of Adventure beginning with #279 in December 1960 to # 293 in february 1962.
here are 6 of those 10centers from that run. the run is mostly VG - Fine and includes the 5th, 9th and 13th Legion appearances. #283 contains the last Congorilla story and #284 contains the last Aquaman in Adventure. (they advertise his concurrent appearance in Showcase).
i have boxes of these mid-grade early 60's DCs..........

Here is a missing image from Burntboy's run of Adventures. This one features the first appearance of Bizarro Mxyzptlk.

And so that we don't insult other members of the Bizarro family, here is the first appearance of Bizarro Krypto!

Can you imagine being a real person and have a comic book use your character! Must have been a real thrill.
One of my favorites, though not a 10 cent-er, is Action #309, which features President Kennedy helping Superman protect his secret identity. The issue was on the stands in late December 1963, just one month after JFK was assassinated.

While we're talking about 10-centers, you really owe it to the thread to post the scan of your Showcase #4 again.
P.S. Those Bizarro covers rule! I love the Bizarro-Mxyzptlk cover!  Bizarro stories are just about the only things from the early silver age that are still as amusing in the present day as they were back then.
