This exhibit has lost its base down the years, but the envelope is still intact.
The device is a bolometer or a thermocouple. Such devices would have been used to measure the mean power of a non sinusoidal signal. This would have been the heart of an RF power meter.
The balloon envelope is 60 mm in diameter and the overall length is 120 mm.
Reference: Observation.
