I think before electric turn signals they stuck out their hands - for RHD, turn right = sticking your arm straight out the right, open palm; and turn left = left arm raised 90 degrees at the elbow (they would have generally been open cars in those days, I suppose, or had rear windows). Or maybe they didn't signal and just drove where they want - kind of like people do these days!
