Description

This is a vintage Motorola Cellular One in-car bag phone from 1991. It comes with its original case, instruction manual, and battery pack. The phone features a numerical keypad (0–9, *, #) along with function buttons including Rcl (Recall), Sto (Store), Snd (Send), Pwr (Power), Fcn (Function), and Clr End (Clear/End). A label at the bottom identifies it as "Cellular One by Motorola," indicating both the service provider and manufacturer. This model represents the early "bag phone" style of mobile phones, designed with a larger battery and transceiver housed in a carrying case for use in vehicles. The piece measures 16” long and is in good condition.
