Harley-Davidson Fat Boy Motorcycle Fuel Tank Novelty Cordless Telephone

This is a vintage novelty cordless telephone designed to replicate the fuel tank of a Harley-Davidson Fat Boy motorcycle. The base unit is shaped like a wide, black teardrop gas tank, complete with dual chrome-finish filler caps on the upper shoulders. The handset is integrated into the center console of the tank, featuring the iconic Harley-Davidson Bar & Shield logo in orange and white. The keypad consists of black rubberized buttons with white alphanumeric labeling, including 'talk' and 'flash' functions. Constructed primarily of injection-molded plastic with a gloss black finish, the item reflects the styling of the late 1990s to early 2000s consumer electronics. Condition appears fair to poor; the black surface shows significant dust accumulation, smudging, and surface micro-scratches. There is notable damage to the paint or a decal at the bottom base of the tank, appearing as a jagged white scuff or peeling area. The chrome-effect plastic caps show some dullness and potential pitting. An antenna is visible extending from the rear of the base, though its straightness and integrity are unclear. These units were typically produced by TeleMania or similar novelty electronic manufacturers under official license. The craftsmanship is standard for mass-produced novelty electronics of its era, prioritizing thematic aesthetics over high-end telecommunication technology.
