Larry,

Here's a little for what it's worth....

My new old stock 4T is serial number 1166xxx, apparently a little older than
your (1175xxx) camera.  There is an eBay auction for a 4T (one of several)
going on.  http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1257696248
I contacted the seller since his serial number is 1140xxx.  He purchased the
camera new in 1991.  I've at least got a "no older than" date for mine (and
for your camera too).  I would love to narrow it down a bit more plus get
the answer to your T vs Ti serial number question.  By the way, my film
compartment shows TNi6 22.  There is definitely some space between the 6 and
the 2.  If I interpret this to mean a build date of 02/92, that would be
consistent with the seller's dating of his camera.  The 6 still throws me
though.
