The original QC tags were card stock with a string attachment.

Your estimate is close, probably late 1976.  Take a look at the serial 
number database at

http://www89405.temp.w1.com/DrakeSerialDatabase.htm>

The two tags for the T-4XC are probably for the transmitter and the 
power supply.  The last schematic revision for the R-4C was at serial 
number 25900, and was dated 11/01/76.  The last transmitter schematic 
was dated 10/07/76 and was for s/n 26670 and up.

The C-4 was probably one of the last made.  The s/n database has nothing 
even close to that high a number.  If it was purchased with the other 
two, it would make a nice data point for the database.
