NICE FIND !!! Based on the size-comparison with the DIP ICs/resistors, these look like large displays....maybe 2 inches tall ? If they really are that big then you definitely want to make a gizmo, probably a clock, with these. It looks like they are direct-drive, and since the IC's appear to be socketed you might be able to remove them and do some individual segment testing to see how healthy the displays are before you start the process of reverse-engineering or redesigning a new board.
