That's quite a piece of glass. I think it's like a WD-58 adapter...currently for a telescope. I may have found a bit of the back-story for this honker, or at least for one just like it. It seems that its original application was an x-ray machine.

I was looking for the faster version. It's a little slow for me at f/.75
