I have several vintage speech ICs, but not that one.
I do as well. I have the Radio Shack "Voice Synthesizer IC Set"
sitting on the desk in front of me right now.

BG Micro sold a board called I believe the CompuTalker, with the
SP0256A-AL2 and CTS256AL2/P pair, like the ICs Radio Shack sold. I have
one of these boards sitting in front of me that I recently mounted in a
nice case with power supply. Mine had some leaky electrolytic caps, but
fortunately the damage was minimal and easily fixed.
I found reference to it in this posting here:
https://groups.google.com/u/1/g/comp.sys.tandy/c/X_6fSse6As4
I've temporarily (please save these if you want them) copied what I
could find in terms of documentation and schematics for these ICs here:

Photos of mine are included.
