    Thanks guys. I guess what I hope this thread will become is a resource of images of historical targes. So I have a few to put up today. I have saved all the images I will be posting, and where possible I will link to the site I got the images from.

    The first set of images is of a targe believed to have been made in 1822. http://www.historicalarmsandarmor.com/european.html
