Ted,

Yes, I measure the angles at 73° for both seat and head tubes. Mind you, 
this is with my phone, but the feel of the riding position is akin to 
another bike that I know to be 73°/73°.

This bike is closer to the AR specified in the RBW 1996 catalog (pp. 11–12) 
than to the AR in the first-generation geometry chart given in catalog no. 
5 (summer 1999). But all photos of ARs I've seen have have double eyelets 
on the fork dropouts; mine has only fender eyelets on the back of the fork 
dropouts.
