Microsystems International MF1402AR 1024-Bit (256 x 4) PMOS Shift Register in White Ceramic - Very Rare

This is a Very Rare Microsystems International MF1402AR 1024-Bit (256 x 4) PMOS Shift Register in White Ceramic as per the Photos.

Microsystems International, A Canadian Company) were a Second Source for a number of Intel Products including the 1101 SRAM , the 1402 Shift Register, the 1702 Eprom and the 8008 Processor.

Customers, particularly large ones like IBM, often insisted on multiple manufacturers for chips to ensure a consistent and reliable supply chain. 
Relying on a single source could lead to disruptions and potential shortages, which was a major risk

This MF1402AR appears to have been manufactured during week 18 of 1974 most likely at a Canadian Plant.

I am unable to test this Chip for functionality so it is being sold for collection purposes only and as such has no warranty or guarantee of being functional.

I can assure any buyers that the prices for these vintage Chips will rise significantly over the coming years as they have done so over the past 30 years so it will be a good investment for them as the majority of the older chips have been scrapped for their gold content.
