Peter Krisp's cartoons were broadcast in almost every country in the world; in Germany, his comics, cartoons and children's books are better known. Lurchi's adventures, the little green booklets from the Salamander shoe stores, which are now reissued as anthologies by Esslinger Verlag in the classic edition, have played the largest part in this. They have thus received the accolade and are now considered to be a "German cultural asset". As the exclusive draftsman for the entire Lurchi area of ​​Salamander AG, Krisp was able to bring the figure to a new bloom with its advertising environment. In 1995 he finished his work for Salamander.
