OPINION
ON APPELLANT’S MOTION FOR REHEARING
ODOM, Judge.
On rehearing, appellant renews his contention that the admission into evidence at the punishment stage of his trial of a prior conviction in which the sentence does not recite that appellant was represented by counsel at that time constitutes reversible error.
*26In Taylor v. State, 470 S.W.2d 663 (1971), this court stated:
“ * * * it is observed that no objection was urged at the time these documents were introduced, and no claim is advanced even now that at the time of such conviction the appellant was indigent, without counsel and did not waive the right of counsel, or that he was deprived of counsel in any manner. * * * In light of the record, we find no merit in appellant’s first contention.”
The pertinent facts are the same in the instant case, and we feel that further discussion of this point would contribute nothing to the jurisprudence of this state. Taylor v. State, supra; Martin v. State, 463 S.W.2d 449; Hudson v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 453 S.W.2d 147; Hasley v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 442 S.W.2d 739; Walling v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 437 S.W.2d 563.
We have also examined appellant’s pro se brief and find his contentions to be without merit.
Appellant’s motion for rehearing is overruled.
