Summary

Description
English: Cranking car to get it started, the old way, Worthington, Ohio August 1938

Man wearing hat crouched down to turn the crank at front of a Model T Ford.
Notes: Car was perhaps 20 years old at the time, but looks fairly well maintained. A car that needed cranking to start was already archaic in 1938.
