"My late uncle worked in the electronics in the Los Angeles area from the 1950's to his retirement in the 1970's.


I remember him showing cufflinks and a tie clip that he told me we made from the chips used in the first air to air heat seeking missiles.

The cuff links and tie clip went missing but I was given a rather large half cylinder lucite casting with at least 70 separate electronics components embedded in it. I have attached photo's showing the company which looks familiar but I can't ID it and the other showing the lucite piece itself.
 
Was hoping you could help identify the company and the history of the lucite piece (I think it's too large to call it a paperweight)."
