The Monsanto MAN-1 was just about the first. It was a calculator sized single digit in a 10 pin flatpack with staggered pins. HP made their display with a controller chip in it soon after. I have a huge three ring binder full of display brochures from 1969 that I found at Black Hole surplus about 20 years ago. It's an amazing collection of advanced and obsolete technologies.
