[slacker77]

I was checking out the fox news website and they had an article on this.Apparently,there is a charlie chaplin movie(the circus) that has a interesting scene that was cut out.You can find it in extended footage if you get the dvd.I don't know what it is,but hey it's a slow day.

What I want to know is why no one has asked about the size of her feet! They are huge... She has to be a time traveler from another planet... One with people who have huge feet...

Also after viewing and reviewing, I can certainly say that the words the lady is saying is "Can you hear me now?"

Is this how conspiracy theories get started?

[CavsSuperFan]

Any self respecting time traveler would be using a hands-free device...

This is proof! Coolidge brought down the towers!

[CavsSuperFan]

You wouldn't need cellphone towers if you are using a sub-space frequency - Duh!

[CavsSuperFan]

Did anyone else notice big foot standing behind the tree ?

[phxspurfan]

It's probably a walkie talkie. Or a radio that he's just talking into like a dumbass.

[Gutter92]

Why can't you hear anything the chick is saying?

[CavsSuperFan]

Earthlings did have have transistorized technology in 1928…Duh...

No .

Small handbags were also common back then. Looks like she's just hiding her ugly face from the camera.

I don't know, but in the close up you can see her talking into it. Its no way a cellphone, but it is weird.

She could have been talking to the man she was following.

Speculation goes nowhere authentic. There are perfectly plausible explanations. Anyone trying to pawn this off as a time traveler, alien, etc. just doesn't have a very good grasp at reality.

A transistor radio is a small portable radio receiver using transistor-based circuitry. Following their development in
1954
they became the most popular electronic communication device in history




A walkie-talkie, or handie talkie, (more formally known as a handheld transceiver) is a hand-held, portable, two-way radio transceiver. Its development
during the Second World War (1939-1945)
has been variously credited to Donald L. Hings, radio engineer Alfred J. Gross, and engineering teams at Motorola.

What has been will be again,

there is nothing new under the sun.

Maybe a hearing aid????

[jack sommerset]

Allien talking to the mothership.

Maybe a hearing aid????

That seems to be the consensus. Hearing aids back then were a small box of some kind according to ABC.

This came out around 1935 but there were other similar ones out earlier/



Amplivox “Purse”
One ingenious example of a carbon hearing aid designed for camouflage was the purse model by Amplivox created around 1935. The purse contained the battery pack and microphone and the user held the earpiece to her ear while holding the purse so the microphone faced the talker.
