Froze, that's a little extreme isn't it? From the nice job highlighting the edge with red paint I'm suspecting a fancy track frame or at least some sort of clean living racer frame.
Actually almost all Italian and French bikes were made this way, that's just a regular road bike with Nervex bb shell. I had bikes in the past with slotted lugs.

There are other designs I can't find pics of but you get the point.
