 ## Source Repository
 
-No canonical upstream repository with UFO or Glyphs sources was found.
+The `googlefontdirectory-hg` monorepo (the historical Google Font Directory Mercurial archive) contains files for this family.
 
-## What Was Done
+- **Repository**: `googlefontdirectory-hg`
+- **Commit**: `52f780bc9d197280a9f430574e179a5f233c56b6`
+- **Source path**: `romanesco/src/`
+
+## Source Files
+
+The `romanesco/src/` directory contains design sources in proprietary VFB format only, which cannot be built with gftools-builder:
+
+- **VFB** (FontLab, proprietary format, not buildable with gftools): Romanesco-Regular-OTF.vfb, Romanesco-Regular-TTF.vfb, Romanesco-Regular.vfb
+- **OTF** (compiled binaries, not design sources): Romanesco-Regular.otf
+
+## Buildability
+
+Not buildable with gftools-builder. The VFB sources are in FontLab's proprietary format. Conversion to UFO or Glyphs format would be required before a reproducible build pipeline could be established.
+
+## Investigation Details
 
 GitHub was searched for "Romanesco font Astigmatic" and related terms. The designer is Brian J. Bonislawsky of Astigmatic. No repository was found under any known Astigmatic-related GitHub account (`ASTIGMATIC`, `astigmatic`, `AOETI`).
