Is it possible that it was time travel? In 2012, the image of a scene from a film shot in 1938 was discovered. In it, a lady appears with an object that, due to the way she carries it and its characteristics, makes us automatically think of a cell phone. Did a trip back in time take the cell phone to that time?
Of course, network theories began to emerge assuring this was irrefutable proof about time travel.
A cell phone in a film from the 1930s In a video uploaded to YouTube, workers are seen leaving a factory in the United States. According to the video description this scene was filmed in 1938.
The scene is pretty ordinary and nothing is out of place. But at one point you might notice a reasonably young woman having what could easily be a phone conversation.
The woman gestures and laughs at a type of object almost identical to a cell phone. After some time she removes it from her ear and leaves with the object in her hand. As if it were any current girl after exchanging messages with a friend.
But shortly after the video was uploaded a comment appeared generating even more intrigue. The user was nicknamed “planetcheck” and said the woman in the video was his great-grandmother, Gertrude Jones. She said that at the time she was 17 years old and walking out of a factory in Dupont, Massachusetts where there was a telephone section. He claimed that his grandmother was testing some kind of cordless phone.
Much has been speculated that it was a radio but so far no such small models have been created.
Supposedly the woman was talking to a co-worker who was on her right side but who wasn’t there.
A simple radio transmitter or something else?
This user’s comment may end all controversy but there are certain details to consider before taking it as the absolute truth.
The first is that at that time the batteries were very large. One of the smallest was the 9-volt Drydex battery, its size was 13 × 7 cm .
Only the battery would be the size of the device and its manufacture was in 1940. Another aspect to be mentioned is that at that time there was no development of transistors. Vacuum valves were used in electronic devices.
It was in 1940 when Motorola finished perfecting the first walkie talkie model, the SCR-536, which was also big.
So far, the unknown about this image is still valid and it is not known exactly what happened in that scene was the woman really talking on the cell phone? Was he pretending to talk on the company radio? It is still a mystery.
