This is a roasting-braising pan. These were fixtures in church basement kitchens, now its in mine, next to its 1947 cousin, the extremely efficient refrigerator.
I have seen these in Ant-eek stores for some$$$, so I gave SA $10. Its missing only one knob on the timer-clock and a its cord.

I remember as a little kid back in the late '50s some family friends we used to go visit, had one of those. Used to mystify me what it was for as I never saw it in action.
