1950 drivers door latch

HELP! The door latch on my 1950 is stuck in the lock position. Neither the outer door handle or the interior one will open the door. It's kind of embarrassing at a car show to enter on the passengers side and then slide over to the drivers side.
I'd like to get a photo of the mechanism so I can figure where to push or pull to open it. So far my efforts have failed.
Thanks,

You may have to remove the door card and work from the inside. I don't remember if the door card will come off if the door is closed /locked or not...Tedd
