Starter-handle injury to the wrist.


The owner of the car seen in the photo. The car originally belonged to his father and was registered in Ceylon in 1931. As a youngster he had hand-cranked the engine, using the starter handle shown in place in the lowest photo, against the advice of his father. The engine back-fired and he ended up with a (Smith's) fracture of his right wrist.
