Appraiser + Auction House Historical Semiconductor Blueprint

Client owns the original, hand-drawn blueprint for the Intel 1205 chip. It was designed by Matthew Miau in 1971 as a custom chip for Mars Money Systems (the candy company) for use in Disney World vending machines. As an early application of EPROM memory, it converted vending machines from mechanical to electronic systems. Client is seeking to sell the blueprint at auction and for an insurance appraisal.
