Combine butter or margarine, sugar, molasses and vinegar in a saucepan. Bring to boil and let cool. Resift flour together with baking soda, cinnamon, ginger and salt. Stir beaten egg into molasses mixture, then blend sifted ingredients into molasses mixture. Mix well, then chill dough in refrigerator.
Preheat oven to 375F. Grease several cookie sheets. Break off one-third of the dough, form into a ball, and roll out on a lightly floured surface to approximately 1/8in thickness. Cut into ‘people’ using a gingerbread cutter.
Decorate with raisons and silver balls. Bake for 8-10 minutes. Remove and cool on a wire rack. Decorate by adding faces and clothing using icing.
