I doubt that the derailleur hanger was installed at the factory, because it appears that the dropouts have been re-chromed.
Compare the highly reflective chrome finish on the brazed areas in this shot

It looks to me that removing the original chrome etched the brazing filler, which was not re-polished before re-chroming. Also the chrome looks thinner than original.
