That probably would be 1981 at the very earliest. More like mid 80's though probably
EDIT: Found it: NTT Model 100 Shoulder Phone, 1985. It actually connects through an existing car phone. Quote:

ok found it...the article is in Japanese but if you have any translators, I guess you'll be able to read it.
so I guess that particular phone is 1985.
I was just reading the first part saying the cell phone showed up in Showa era, 45 (1985) and I thought they were indicating one in the pic.
