Noone has mentioned the flat 4.5 V flashlight battery.? It was very common when I was growing up in Sweden.
The size was 65 x 60 x 23mm and fit nicely in a pocket.
See:
Often the lamp was at the end, not sideways.
?
The other flashlight I remember was hand-powered by squeezing a lever.? There was no battery, so it was a hand exerciser.
It fit nicely in the hand.? Not like the models sold with and external crank to turn.
