Our local $1.25 tree didn't have that art work. I just did a walk through at the store.
They did have alot of garden old truck art work, just not the bug you found.

I'm a big spender, was worth the $1.25 !!!
Look at all the other "useless" stuff in the background of my picture; I even still have the two obsolete cell phones I used before I had to upgrade to a 4G TracFone flip phone two years ago as my TracFone didn't have enough Gs.
I also have the slide rule I used in college before calculators became available affordable, golf balls including the two times I shot par, old softball and tennis trophies....

What's the saying? "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"? Morris test passed!  |

Paint it the same color as your bug, write holiday-related wordings on the side, and you've got an even cooler VW themed decoration! I like it!
BTW, I too have a golf ball on display. A fluke 102 yard hole-in-one I never even saw go into the hole due to an elevated green....
