Check out by date. E.g. 
cvs update -D 2000-11-30 [filenames]

gives you all files like they were at that date. Of course, you've to find
out which date you need...
You can also specify dates by ways like
cvs update -D "4 weeks ago" [filenames]
or
cvs update -D "last week" [filenames]
if you like.

PS: cvs update -D "last christmas" [filenames] doesn't work :-(
