Meaning non-automotive stuff.... like decorative crap around the house. I have a ceramic Bug cookie jar an old co-worker gave me, it's actually very close to the color of my '67. I used to have a fairly large red Bug (maybe 18" long) that had a flip top roof, and inside, of all things, were shot glasses and a liquor decanter. Unfortunately my ex- took it with her when she moved out.
At my wedding April 2006, my wife had a special groom's cake made for me.....a pretty close replica of my '67....complete with fake BRM mags. I'll try and post some pics later....

What do you have around the house?

This is a ceramic bank my daughter made for me a few years ago. It has me and her looking out the windshield and even the Phoenix slicks and club sticker in the quarter window

A couple of odds and ends here...Had the 356 pencil box for a long time; inside, some old VW pens, VW guitar pics, and a Bug-In sticker from Fontana.

Ooops, hit the wrong button....Next a Bug-In 13 poster drawn by Shakey Jake.  The Bug card holder is from KS.  Last a framed picture from an art gallery in Sonora, Ca.

I only have three of these, because I only "actually" entered then. And what really sucks is that, over the years, the pics inside have gone away.....anybody remember getting them FREE! at Bug-In?

Yeah i'd love to see that too, but right now the shell is just a pile of rust on one side and a bunch of new panels on the other. Gotta mix those before any new paints comes in...
