If I recall correctly, HP serial numbers of that vintage are YYWWCNNNNN.
YY is the year expressed in years since an epoch, usually 1960. So 19
means 1979.
WW is the week of the year in which the last manufacturing change was
made.
C is the manufacturing location, A means USA.
NNNNN is a sequential unit number.
