34-2184. The closest modern equivalent is type 44. The only difference is, the original had a "special flat filament" and the end (top) of the bulb was painted black. You can't get the "special flat filament" anymore, but you can paint the top of the bulb black if you want to.

Info on this and other Philco pilot lamps from a handy-dandy chart on Chuck's site.
