A serif typeface (style of letters) designed to be elegant and readable, created in the 1750s and still widely used.
Named after John Baskerville, a British printer and typeface designer who created this style in Birmingham, England in the mid-1700s.
John Baskerville was so particular about his typeface that he invented new printing techniques and even had his own paper mill to match his vision—his obsession created one of the most used fonts in publishing history.
