Under Pressure 120-130

I'm a new owner of a 1964 122s.

I'm still learning my way around the car, and I'd like some help with the oil gauge.

One of the previous owners installed a mechanical pressure gauge, but I dont really know what I'm looking at.

Could someone please tell me what's good or bad in various states?

I've read some background on the forums, but I'm looking for even more basic information:

What's optimal pressure at idle?
At highway speed?
What's a red flag?

Thanks in advance.
