Had one follow me home from the local hamfest. It's a Comparison Bridge
with a 2" scope from the mid 50s. Neat looking box. Anyone got any
info, manual or what
its primary application was/is?

Wild guess: for incoming / outgoing QC inspection of capacitors,

altho it should also be useable for inductors.
