The Ever Ready batteries mentioned in #47, other than the 1.5V ones, are listed in the 1986 Maplin catalogue.
I cant find flag cells, or close equivalent from Farnell, any chance of a link or part number ?

I THOUGHT that production had ceased years ago.
The only somewhat similar product that I have seen in recent years are the large cylindrical cells produced by Cegassa, these however are air/alkaline and not a replacement for large zinc carbon cells.
They have a very limited current capability, and once activated a limited life.
