I agree, that's one pet peeve of mine, I really don't like to see objects that were originally the center of attention on their card being shrunk down and held/worn by a person.
That's an interesting thought, one might do the same with the various mountains in the Dondorf.
Clearly some of the meanings to the cards have expanded over the years, with different meanings associated with various "schools" but in the PL sheet there's no mention of Mountain having an effect on other cards.
However, there is a reference in the meanings of the Tower, and a couple of other cards, about if it's surrounded by clouds, which appear in a couple of other cards in the Dondorf, Piatnik, and Red, Blue, White Owl decks. Of course, this relates to reading a GT using the method of distance and probably wouldn't apply to laying lines.
It might be worth referring to the sheet occasionally when attempting a GT to see the original thoughts on the cards used within that spread.
The PL sheet is still available to download and print on my store site.
