1970s Royce-Union Folding Bicycle

Recently purchased this beautiful vintage bicycle in June'11 from a Bartering-Painter on Craigslist for $110. Has a bit of rust here and there but for the most part is in pretty-good shape. This is my first major bike restoration project! So, I'm continuously looking for information on Royce-Union bicycles and maintenance for vintage bicycles if you know of anything please share your knowledge. Thanks and Enjoy!
