I'm sure that Bridgestone version is a decent tire that gets the job done, but not exactly "old school". There are options (in the UK) but at silly prices..

 I am also looking for a pair of Bridgestone 205 x 70 x15 to mount on my BRM'S for the rear of my 1966 Cal Look. Bought a pair of 145 x 15 today next the rolling chassis. Than next the paint job at Buddy Hale

Bridgestone duellers or traction work well and are easily available in the uk
Michelin xwx are better, soft compound, but expensive
