No. Even Olympus doesn't have this information (several List members have
tried to elicit such info out of Oly; all have been told that no such info
exists).

Mine was purchased new in the last year of the model's manufacture -- 1987. It
has a serial number of 2,191,6xx. Unfortunately, this may not have a strong
correlation to when it was *manufactured* -- it's possible it sat in stock for
months or even years before it was finally sold at retail.
