To all, thanks for the concept. The following based on original  design
submission, might help in tweaking:

CREATE TABLE elephant
(row_num integer NOT NULL,
 row_dat varchar(30) NOT NULL,
 CONSTRAINT elephant_pk PRIMARY KEY (row_num)
);

INSERT INTO elephant
(row_num, row_dat)
VALUES
( 1,'+------------------------+'),
( 2,'|   ____  ______  ___    |'),
( 3,'|  /    )/      \/   \   |'),
( 4,'| (     / __    _\    )  |'),
( 5,'|  \    (/ o)  ( o)   )  |'),
( 6,'|   \_  (_  )   \ )  /   |'),
( 7,'|     \  /\_/    \)_/    |'),
( 8,'|      \/  //|  |\\      |'),
( 9,'|          v |  | v      |'),
(10,'|            \__/        |'),
(11,'|                        |'),
(12,'|  PostgreSQL 1996-2016  |'),
(13,'|  20 Years of success   |'),
(14,'+------------------------+');

SELECT row_dat FROM elephant ORDER BY row_num;
