Wheeeee! The 2012 wimp in me is impressed.  Sleigh leaving ski-jump. Alexandra Palace, London, England, 1933.
Below, fashionable snow storm protection, 1939 in Montreal. Wonder if this particular style will return?
Happy Monday! These pictures are all courtesy of the National Archives of the Netherlands
