Can anyone ID what this panel is from? I picked it up recently for parts but

I grew up with X-Y scope displays, their associated electrostatic printers, and
Calcomp pen plotters. To draw letters and symbols on these, we used Fortran
libraries driven by data tables to make "Hershey Characters".
This year, the Hershey Font system and libraries turn 50 years old:
