This appears to be an automotive headlamp bulb that's missing its bayonet base.  Many of these bulbs were made by the McCandless Company (http://bulbcollector.com/article021.html).

This is what your bulb looks like with the base (http://bulbcollector.com/gateway/Incandescent_Lamps/Miniature_Tungsten_Filament/image/wm0005.jpg).
