These are EL displays, they work in the same manner as the EL wire that is commonly available nowadays, but spread out flat instead of rolled in a wire. The Russians made lots of different EL displays but they do not often come up on Ebay for sale. This is one of the more unusual types, the strange segment pattern allows the display to draw Cyrillic alphanumeric characters. This one can do numbers too, though the "4" character ends up kind of deformed looking.
