Default door locks

We just acquired a 39 convertible sedan & I wonder about the door locks. We find that pushing the door handle up locks the door. The key will lock or unlock the passenger front door but the door can't be unlocked if the door handle was pushed up when closed. Is this the way it works?

Yes.
