Love Bug Square Trans Tab

The front of this snap tab features the stripes and 53 "gumball" of Herbie the Love Bug, the 1963 Volkswagen Beetle with a mind and heart of its own.

Herbie's usual stripes are replaced with the trans flag stripes on this version - LGBTQ+ folks are at elevated risk of dying by suicide.

Gabe's Herbie the Love Bug replica, which he drives all over the East Coast, spreads a message of mental health and suicide awareness. Herbie's rear window features a suicide hotline message, and every third or fourth post on his Instagram account @lovebugtrumpshate is mental health or suicide prevention/awareness related.

The back of the fob is printed vinyl echoing Herbie's updated rear-window message. If you'd like the older, 1-800, version, those are available in the shop as well.

The full purchase price of every item in this collection goes to Gabe to put gas in Herbie's tank.
