Flash light, toys with motors or lights, portable radios (with tubes).
Hope this helps

Flashlights with wide "D-cells" were a big use then. There were also very large batteries used for electric lanterns. There were also giant "24V dry-cells" used for telegraphs and for phone circuits. There were high voltage (90V) batteries used for the plate voltage of vacuum tube radios.
It was before the era of 9V rectangular batteries used for transistor radios.

back in the fifties.. I think eveready had a slogan such as .."when its dark it shines".. it showed a flashlight ray being beamed upward from a well.. as though someone fell in a well but had their eveready flashlight to save them..
Eveready batteries.. When its dark we shine!

start your car (or boat or truck or tractor) - run your transistor radio-- or turn on your flashlight- those were the common uses
There were less common uses such as testing volt/ohmeters and maybe someother industrial equipment uses or boating uses and maybe some even more rare that I hadn't thought of.
