I think the problem you are likely to run into even if you find one is
that ti will be an ISA board.  Try finding a computer that works what
still has one.  I had a really nice EPROM Programmer that I used for
over 2 decades that I finally had to toss because the interface was
ISA and after trying all the boxes I had in storage that still had ISA
not one of them worked.  The other problem you will likely run into is
speed.  Most of the old EPROM programmers were very dependent on the
speed of the host machine.  Faster was not better.  Actually, faster
was a show stopper.  I finally broke down and threw all my old EPROM
programmers away and bought a couple of cheap (but nice) USB programmers.
haven't looked back....
