Obsolete IC Hunt

I ran across an old issue of a hobby magazine which had an article “Time On Your Hands” November-December issue circa 1973. I am trying to find a source for the Mostek MK5017A BB which is used in this article. Does anyone know where I might purchase a couple of these chips at a reasonable price?

I have spent several hours on the Internet and have not been able to locate a supply from any other place. Maybe one of your readers would have some of these they might be willing to part with for such a good cause.
