The Highlo Pen Museum


Sheaffer Targa

The Targa range was first introduced in 1976 and spanned two decades. It was an innovative design at the time and has since been much copied.  The pen has a nice solid, reliable feel to it, the clip, for example, being one of the most durable you will find on any pen - anywhere.  The nib is based on the old Triumph design, but much improved. All Targas are convertible and can be filled from a bottle or take cartridges. Although the pen is no longer in production, the cartridges are still available.
In 1982 a new range of Targa's was introduced with ladies in mind. This was known as the Slim Targa, and with only a few exceptions was made in the same patterns as the standard Targa.
I have always considered the Targa to be one of the most reliable pens Sheaffer ever produced. It is not only a good pen for everyday use, but is destined to become a future classic and is already very collectible, not least because of the vast range of patterns and models that have been available - over sixty.
