Wow. What a find.
The phone number for the Bicycle Center looks American to me; 6-0342. Perhaps the first two letters of the word PHone are to be dialed as numbers, i.e. 742-0342, or the shop was in a smaller town where the exchange had only the one digit. With a little luck you can probably find the store in an old phone directory.
I think the oil port on the hub is missing a metal cap, basically a disc with a protruding tab that bent around and into the slot in the back.
But wow, what a find.
