Baskerville Old Face KTKM was released by KTKM. Baskerville Old Face KTKM contains 1 design. p >" So-called Baskerville Old Face of the type foundry Stephenson Blake & & Co. of Sheffield. The Script is probably not immediately connected to Baskerville, however it is really much affected by it. It is one of the most gorgeous types of which the mats still exist; it has an incomparably different spirit than the 'streamlined' re-cuts of today's Baskerville. Even keeping the general restraint very expressive. According to Berthold Wolpe (' Signatures' No. 18), the punches were cut and displayed in samples in 1776 by Isaac Moore, who came from Birmingham to Bristol."

Publisher note: I desired to enhance the contrast between thick and thin, minimize some ink-traps and offer stems, serifs and links a smoother overall feel. I have likewise included some alternative letters and old style characters.
