I have a tapestry which is an enlargement of the LD jacket of LD vol.
13(?) with Yang, Frederica, Julian, etc. on the left and Reinhard, Hilda,
Reuenthal, etc. on the right. The nicest poster-size picture I have is
in the 1992(?) LoGH calender. The last page of the calender depicts
Reinhard with crown on head and sceptre in hand, a very kingly sight.
The prettiest LoGH poster I have ever seen was painted by Okuda
Mantsuri(?) who designed the chief characters for the anime. It shows
Reinhard sitting on a chair, glazing forward with a standing Kircheis on
his side, watching him for every slightest change of gesture. I saw this
poster in a local Japanese bookstore a few days before a local TV channel
introduce Season 1 of LoGH. As I knew nothing about the series, I did
not buy it; and it was gone when I went back for it a few days
afterwards. A minature of this poster can be found in "Epitaph", a
selection of Okuda Mantsuri's illustrations.
