This is a list of finder objects.  Which makes sense inside of a  
Finder tell block.

if you had said

tell application "Finder"
set fileList to every file of tiffFolder as alias list
end tell

you would have received.

{alias "prepress:Hold for V30:12266_Aviator:12266_Aviator.psG01.TIF",  
alias"prepress:Hold for V30:12266_Aviator:12266_Aviator.psG01.TIF"}

which compiles.
