Collars were frequently trimmed with beaver lamb or mink and cuffs were often deep and plush.
In the morning, me - in traditional hare cap with ear-flaps, off-size coat, scarf that closes mouth in order not to get a cold, runs under beaver lamb collar and tied in a bungle behind.
Specially imported mohair cloths were attractively trimmed with black Persian lamb and real beaver lamb.
Not the expensive kind of fur, I collect cheap old beaver lamb coats on ebay.
