145 V, 25 W.

E17 (standard "intermediate" base), T6.5 bulb shape. Nothing very
unusual there.

The filament in this bulb is broken but I've inherited more then 100
of them.

Those are used in horizontal desk work lights, picture frame lamps,
things like that. I believe the 145 volt rating is so typical use will
be undervoltage giving a longer life.

Fixtures like this:

Some appliances may take a bulb like that, too. Sewing machines
typically have a smaller long tube bulb, but maybe one takes that size.
