Motorola StarTAC 130 & Clip-On Organizer 

The Motorola StarTAC was released on January 3, 1996 by Motorola. It became the first flip-phone (or clamshell) model phone ever released. It was the successor to the Motorola MicroTAC line which was released in 1989. The StarTAC was among the first phones to gain widespread consumer adoption, selling 60 million units by the time the phone was discontinued. In 2004, the StarTAC brand was revived in some Asian markets. 

The smaller thing on the right side is the Motorola StarTAC Clip-On Organizer (1997). It was kind of like a PDA organizer for the StarTAC.
