The fork may be, but I'm pretty sure the frame's not. The wraparound seat stays, brake bridge and lugs are not right for a Colnago.

For good reason... The frame ain't Ernesto's, the fork was (is still). Someone probably gave him $40 for the fork. 
Doesn't mean the frame ain't worth a FEW bucks. It might be. Campy dropouts?

Not Colnago.
The fork doesn't look quite right, but it may be an early 70's fork. One would need more photos. But, of course, that doesn't really matter.

Looks quite a bit like a Falcon San Remo frame. The wraparound seat stay and lugs look identical; however, this frame comes with brazed-on down tube shifter posts and top tube brake guides.
If it is a San Remo, it would be made from a Reynolds 531 tube set.

The lugs are wrong, but those cable guides on the top tube look just like the ones on my RB1.
