The first respondent is right- it's Alice. For a fuller account of this, and the other stuff on show in the picture I can give you a link to a crackin' site- well, I could get you even to the right page if my computer wasn't playing me about, but here's the right address- http://www.comp.dit.ie/dgordon/League/lo...
Have fun!
Wait! That wasn't the right address at all- and I've had a look at this one- http://www.geocities.com/ratmmjess/leagu...
which is pretty detailed; here's the spot where I read it- http://www.geocities.com/ratmmjess/leagu... - and here's the lines themselves-
"I've been convinced by my sweetie Alicia and by Kieran Cowan and Heather Kamp that the person in the mirror is not a boy but is in fact Alice, of Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865) and Through the Looking-Glass (1871). In the latter novel Alice enters Wonderland through a mirror. "
LEGV2 contains a prose 'travellers tales' series, where Alice is featured- after the League's Alice goes through the looking glass, however, her organs are reversed, and she dies shortly after her return. The Alice in the mirror on the cover of V1 is presumably the shade of this unfortunate mite, peeking out to see if she can spy her poor old body anywhere...
My guess would be Alice, as in "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" or in this case "Alice through the looking glass" from the warped mind of Lewis Carroll.
