That would be "1avv" not "lavv".  All PDB structure codes begin with a number.
You could use "fetch 1avv" to get it, but I guess you know that.

The only way to "undo" what you have done is to delete the objects created by
draw_cell_param (or similarly with draw_cell) and rerun the draw_cell_param
function.  You'll find the delete function under the "A" menu next to the
object name or simply type "delete cell*" to delete all objects whose name
begins with "cell". 

As far as the labels go, you'll note that two objects are created by the
draw_cell function.  One object is the cell border and the second is the
labels. Simply click on the name of the labels and they will turn off. This
is true of any object.

The fetch command should leave the 2x19.pdb file in the directory from which
you started PyMOL.

Cheers,
