EKLA ladies bike sandcast lugs 1940
EKLA, left a cast, right a pressed seatcluster.
Carlton 1953 International
A cross-over between lugless and lugged frames is the "partial bi-laminate".
A sleeve is brazed over both sides of the long tubes.
After that, the frame is built the same way as any lugless frame.
Using 31x1mm pieces as sleeves and 28,6x0,8mm CrMo as tubes, you can built nice touring bikes.
