Another TIRE SIZE Question

I'm looking to switch things up by swapping out my black tires for some gumwalls, but I'm going crazy trying to find some to fit.

The tires that are currently on the bicycle are marked: (40-571)  26 X 1 1/2

1. Would these tires fit?

2. Or would these ones?

1923 CCM ???

I'm in need of some expert advise.  I recently aquired a CCM bicycle that is in decent shape.  I have begun to restore it but I don't know what it is supposed to look like because I can't identify the year and model.  My guess was that it isfrom around the 1960s, but while disassembling the bicycle I found a serial number on one of the drop outs: C95603.  I used the CCM serial number chart which dates it to 1923.  Is this correct???  Can someone please help me identify this bicycle from the pictures below?

Model and Approximate Vintage...

I have a few old CCM bicycles but the one that is of greatest interest to me is this one...

Does anyone know what model and approximate year this bicycle would be.  Though I spend most of my time with vintage racing bikes, I am, lately, leaning towards restoring bikes like this one.  In fact, I just might take a shot at restoring this one.

Value of 1943 CCM Bicycle

I would appreciate knowing the approximate value of a CCM bicycle which was purchased new by my father about 1943.  I can not say for sure the exact year, but think it was 1943 because my father said he purchased it when age 25.  The accompanying booklet containg directions for care and operation, also traffic rules, was printed in Canada and is dated 1941-42.  This bicycle has 28" wheels.  It requires complete restoration.  There are multiple layers of black paint, and both fenders are rusted and misshapen.  Most of the parts are complete, except for the
