Description: This offering is for a RARE Sheaffer Targa Color Palette Emerald Green Swirl Roller Ball / Ball Pen Set. It has Never Been Used despite being 28 years old. It has been displayed twice in a slotter tray only. Otherwise, it has been in a closed box, safely stored for 27 years and 10 months. Sheaffer launched this finish in 1995 as part of the Color Palette strategy which spanned the Crest, Targa, Fashion and Triumph series. They only produced them for over a year and these are sure to be a much demanded finish as time progresses. Not many of these were produced or sold compared to many of the other Sheaffer products. In addition to that - they are stunning. We are redistributing our fine writing instrument collection and these are models we have really enjoyed owning. Here is a chance to match up product to the Fountain Pen that you purchased in the late 1990s if you were lucky enough to know about this Sheaffer series. About the Sheaffer Targa: First launched by the Sheaffer Pen Company of Fort Madison, Iowa in 1976 this line was inspired by Targa Floria. This event was an open road endurance auto race held in Palermo Sicily for many years. The event ceased in 1977, one year after the Targa Writing Instruments were launched worldwide. During the next 23 years it would be adorned with over 80 different finishes, before finally "running its last race" in 1999. By then its reputation had been built, and today it is still fondly remembered and cherished by pen enthusiasts worldwide. The size, balance, durability and finishes made the Targa very popular, and the fantastic Solid 14K Gold Inlaid Nib was a major calling card that set the Fountain Pen apart. The snap cap was well designed and gave a feeling of security. About this piece of Fine Writing Jewelry: RARE Emerald Green Swirl Pattern / Gold Trimmed Targa! They have never been used and our in MINT condition! Please continue to follow baprap-pens as we redistribute our collection.
