"Texas remained prominent in newspapers throughout the country during 1836, and printers and publishers issued several images relating to incidents from the revolution.[P]ublishers quickly issued three lithographic illustrations of Santa Anna's surrender to Sam Houston. Wounded in the battle, Houston, who had two horses shot from under him and his left ankle shattered by a rifle ball, painfully reposed under an oak tree in the Texian camp when the captured Santa Anna was brought before him. That scene.became the subject of two lithographs issued by New York publishing houses. The first is an illustrated sheet music cover for 'Texian Grand March'.The image erroneously shows the wounded but victorious Houston receiving Santa Anna's surrender while lying on a cot in his tent, rather than under an oak tree, and with a wounded right leg." - Tyler. Streeter notes three variants, varying in imprint and lithographer's name, with Swett replacing Anthony Fleetwood (suggesting, according to Tyler, that the stone had worn down and needed replacement). The Streeter copy, the same issue as the present, sold for $110 to Harper. EBERSTADT 162:542. STREETER SALE 349. STREETER TEXAS 1171B. TYLER, TEXAS LITHOGRAPHS, pp. 35-36 and fig. 1.24.
