Interesting image!

 

These are off-duty German soldiers during World War One.  While the Germans generally enjoyed superior trenches, dugouts, and bunkers, the mill-sawn lumber, electric lights, and plumbing were not typical front-line amenities.   This looks like a cellar in a rear area.  The newspaper was published in Bonn and distributed there and in neighboring districts, giving a probable general location for this picture. 

 

Thanks for posting!

By 1914-18 there were certainly better options availabe than a Trade Mark.  It would have been a lot easier to carry around the trenches than an Edison A&N though.
