      My guess (only!) would be some variety of radio broadcast transmitter tube, given its very large size and most unique configuration of pins/etc. If not that, perhaps something which was part of another kind of otherwise 'huge and very heavy duty' industrial equipment.

      One thing it certainly *isn't* is something that ultimately plugged into somewhere in back of anybody's household radio/TV set...?! ;-) ;-) ;-)

      A VERY COOL (not to mention no doubt *unusual*) ITEM!!! :-) :-) :-) :-)
