Like yours, his is a beautifully fillet brazed frame. I love lugs, but sometimes I think fillet brazing is even prettier.
Fillet brazing was uncommon back in '89, but it made a lot of sense for tandems.
Nowadays, it just looks like the aluminum or carbon frames, with one tube flowing into another.
At least it's got a nice headbadge...
