Hi Matt,
Despite what you might read, some Romics had decent aesthetics and workmanship! Here are some photos of my Team Romic:

"From what I understand of Ray, it sounds like he was a no nonsense kind of guy and favored a quality frame, while generally ignoring aesthetics. This is why I put emphasis on seeing some other lugs, just to see how it compares. I've heard of poor quality lugwork on these frames, but I have not seen many."
