WM. H. BROWN PRINTS PRES VAN BUREN AND HARRISON
Two prints by Wm. H. Brown and lithograph by E.B. & E.C. Kellogg. William Henry Harrison Sr. (February 9, 1773 – April 4, 1841) was an American military officer, a principal contributor in the War of 1812, and the ninth President of the United States (1841). He was the last president born before the American Revolution, and died of pneumonia just 31 days into his term. Martin Van Buren (1782-1862) was the first president to be born a citizen of the United States and not a British subject and as the eighth president. Van Buren helped form the new Democratic Party from a coalition of Jeffersonian Republicans who backed the military hero and president Andrew Jackson. These 2 prints were produced by the lithographic firm E.B. & E.C. Kellogg. Edmund Burke Kellogg (1809-1872) and Elijah Chapman Kellogg (1811-1881) were brothers of the founder of the Kellogg lithography firm.
