I can't identify what equipment this went to; Stackpole made a LOT of 
different keyboards for a LOT of different manufacturers.  Unless 
someone happens to recognize the keyboard layout from a piece of 
equipment they already have, that's as close as you're going to get.

On the other hand, the fact that the manufacturer used a socket for 
the controller points to a programmable item; if this was a salvage 
item, it may have even been a reprogrammable item.  An 87C51 might be 
a good start.  A shot of the underside around the socket, including 
the connections to the power/signal header might cinch the guess.

Cheers,
Chuck
