What makes you think so? Its hard to be sure from that tiny picture, but the forks at least look different. I think yours look thicker than the Thanet ones..
Is that an alloy seatpin? What else is on it? If thats a 531 stem, the alloy bars/rims/seatpin would suggest its somewhere above the average massmarket frame ( or at least been upgraded, if it was a 50s frame), but that doesnt rule out the respray idea either..
As for tyres, SJS usually has cheap Schwalbes in stock..
