Dolled-up revelers celebrated Christmas the way their parents and grandparents might have — plus a little artistic license — at the 1940s White Christmas Ball last Saturday, December 7, at the Wings Over the Rockies Air and Space Museum.

You can see all of his photos in our 1940s White Christmas Ball slide show.
