Description: Satirical cartoon drawn for Isle of Man Times newspaper. Shows an old car - 'Manx Civil Defence' - which has started at last.
This cartoon appeared on 31 January 1942, and is a reference to the fact that also the Isle of Man Government has at last begun to take Civil Defence seriously, the sceptical Manx public is unconvinced and notes there is a long way to go to reach the peak of efficiency.
