In the Soviet era, families celebrated New Years with many of the trappings of Christmas, including a decorated tree and gifts and a red-suited guy named Grandfather Frost.
bOING-bOING listed a site of greeting cards from the era, many of which have aeronautical themes. I really thought this one was cute. Spaceships! Fuzzy forest creatures! Toddlers in space suits! Santa knock-off! Girl dressed as a snowflake!
