| Who would she be talking to on a cell phone, in 1928? The telecommunications infrastructure couldn't have even supported such a device. |

I think that's the question being posed here. Watch the video in the link, the woman/man is clearly holding a thin black object and talking. Unless he/she is a lunatic and talking to themselves, it makes for a quite puzzling discovery. |

| It could be many other things, but a mobile phone? No. Just no. |

Yeah, it does look quite odd.

The device was invented in the 1920s, and by 1928 there were a few small devices available, such as ones manufactured by Acousticon, that could explain the device in her hand. |

It looks like he/she is scratching their face while making a remark, like "Ow!" and/or "Damn that hurts." I don't see any device. Only the middle and index finger curled around where one would be, near the ear. |

Look again. She's definitely holding something. It's probably a hearing aid, like I quoted before. |
