They told me it was a full oscillator circuit inside, apparently in
traditional tesla setup with a spark gap and all.

Hi Eric,
     It looks like a miniature version of the device described in "The 
Tesla High Frequency Coil" by G.F.Haller & E.T.Cunningham, D. van Nostrand, 
NY, 1910. I believe reprints of this book were made by Lindsay Publications 
of Bradley, IL, about 10 years ago. This book is also interesting for the 
construction notes on a home-made Magnetic Spark Interrupter (quencher) and 
a 3-cell Electrolytic Rectifier.
