My understanding is that it's your use of alias which isn't correct.

tell application "Finder" to get alias of (POSIX file ("/System/Library/Fonts/" & "Menlo.ttc"))  fails 
but
tell application "Finder" to get (POSIX file ("/System/Library/Fonts/" & "Menlo.ttc")) as alias  behaves flawlessly.


For my own use I would code :

((path to fonts folder from system domain as text) & "Menlo.ttc") as alias
