Hardback. Condition: Very Good. First edition. Mildred A. Wirt, later Mildred Benson, was a working journalist who also wrote dozensperhaps hundredsof books for young people under various synonyms. Most famously, she started the Nancy Drew series using the name Carolyne Keene. In this case, she wrote the short-lived "Dot and Dash" series in the 1930s for younger readers, about the adventures of a little girl (Dot) and her mischievous terrier (Dash), using the name her publisher selected for herDorothy West. (Decidedly NOT the great Harlem Renaissance writer of the same name who was working at the same time.) In "Dot and Dash in the Pumpkin Patch," pumpkins are found and lost, jack-o-lanterns are carved, pranks are played and misfire, and lessons are learnedall typical for books of this type. Our copy is in very good condition, especially considering its age. There is a black-and-white frontispiece illustrating a scene from page 89, "The man jumped off the moving train." The front and back endpapers are illustrated. The front endpapers include a printed section meant to imitate a book plate. Cynthia Reynolds, who was obviously new to cursive writing at the time, filled in the lines in pencil where it says, "This is my Book," while "Aunt Helen" filled in the lines saying who the book is from. The top edge of the text block is decoratively stained blue. There is some soiling to the front cover and edges, but there are no marks to the pages themselves. The pages exhibit the expected level of age tanning, but nothing interferes with the legibility of the text. Photos of this copy on request.

First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Mildred A. Wirt Benson was one of those prolific children's authors who wrote under a seemingly endless number of names - both male and female pseudonyms in this case. She even wrote under the name Mildred A. Wirt sometimes, but is probably best known as having written (as Carolyn Keene) most of the early Nancy Drew books. Here, as Dorothy West, she penned this typically high quality Dot and Dash series "For Girls from 6 to 10 years old". This is the fourth of a total of five books in the series. This copy is the very scarce first issue with the jacket depicting Dot in a yellow dress running through the woods with Dash at her side. There was a more common second issue with Dot in a pink dress sitting on a grassy tussock. This first issue also has good paper and a frontispiece printed on glossy paper (second issue had inferior paper). Another difference is that this copy makes no mention of the fifth title in the series ("Dot and Dash at the Seashore", 1940) either on the jacket or in the advertisement for the series in the back of the book. Although the book is described as "Illustrated", all you get is a black and white frontispiece. Bit of a swiz, that! (There's a word I haven't used since I was ten!) OK, this is expensive, so let's go over the condition in some detail. First thing to say is that this is an extraordinary copy! The blue cloth boards, with black lettering to spine and upper cover, are amazingly fresh and clean. The only real defect is a slight knock to the upper edge of the lower board. The stained top edges show little or no signs of fading. The illustrated endpapers show the merest hint of browning, but the front endpaper - which is printed with a "This is my Book" space - has been filled in, very nicely and discreetly (and dated 1943). The top, recto, corners of the frontispiece and the title page have signs of erasure and the frontispiece corner has a soft crease across it. Edges of the textblock are just slightly browned. All in all, a remarkably unsullied and tight copy. Very good indeed. Dust jacket is very good, slightly worn on edges and folds, with one or two chips and nicks to spine ends and edges. Both upper and lower corners of both flaps have the same shallow clipping, so I'm not sure which corner, if any, carried a price. The inside of the jacket is printed on all panels with a catalog of "The Best Books for Boys and Girls", listing many of the series the publisher was known for. Wonderful copy of a scarce children's series title.
