probably listening to a tape recorder, could be talking to herself.

Duh! Time travel.

hmmmmm, interesting

It's a man, baby!

It's a man, baby!

 

Thats what im thinking.. walkie talkie..

Wow kind of like quantum leap!!

Thats what im thinking.. walkie talkie..

A small, portable, hand holdable walkie talkie in 1928?? I'm skeptical.

 

Ditto for a tape recorder.

I could be incorrect, but I don't think handheld tape recorders were available in 1928.

 

I just googled it and aside from wax cylinders, the technology of the day was wire recorders. From pictures they look to be about the size of a cash register.

I kinda thought since she was aware of the camera she was just holding something up to cover her face. Maybe mumbling to herself, But that may be stretching it.

KGB..

Very interesting.

HD quality camera work from 1928. hmmmmm, i think not.

I knew I shouldn't have called right then, but I was so anxious to get some information on the famous Charlie Chaplin. Plus I wanted some 12mp pictures of him.

Seashell. Listening to the ocean.

Very interesting, I was thinking walkie talkie as the most likely answer but even that was not until WW2 and even then it would be even bigger than what that person was holding. My guess is it might be something like a music box and the person is holding it to their ear to hear it.

 

For fun lets create the "time traveler's" conversation might be.

 

Time Traveler: Uh boss, I don't think I'll be making it to work today.

Boss: I am tired of your excuses! You will be into work or you’re fired.

Time Traveler: But there is a slight problem.

Boss: I don't care. If you have to low crawl to get here, you will get here or else.

Time Traveler: That’s the problem!

Boss: You have to low crawl to get here?

Time Traveler: No. I am here; it’s the building that's not.

Boss: WTF are you talking about.

Time Traveler: I am in the 1920's!

Maybe I am jaded, but I remember laughing at a guy in NYC back in the 80's for talking into a croissante.

and I know plenty of people that picked up a bannana and played like it was a phone too.

The weird stuff people like to pick up on.

They were showing this video on CNBC last night on my ferry ride home. I couldn't hear the audio though. I guess it's gone viral.
