Thank you for the Decca example.
I just bought a magazine ( https://www.ebay.ca/itm/383398689201 ) from 1918-Sep, which has a rear-page ad promoting Victrola as the machine of choice for sea or trench.  The illustration can't possibly be a "for trench use" model.
<<<Carrying the Song of Victory across the seas

Love of country, love flag, of home, of the dear ones left behind -- these are the emotions that steel the strength of the fighting man. And it is with the voice of these emotions that the Victrola speaks to the solderi on land and sea, in the front line trench and the base hospital, in the home camp and right up at the cannon's mouth.

The Victrola -- small, light, compact -- can be carried everywhere.  It requires no musician to play it.  And wherever it goes, go its song of hope and courage -- its art, its entertainment, its comfort, its impulse to victory.
