Enlarge the typeface to 72 points and zoom in to focus on the nuances of each letter... It is an absolutely exquisite typeface. One of the GOATs for sure.

Baskerville is one of my favorite fonts, and the history of technology is one of my favorite topics (and rather under served, to my mind), so you can imagine my joy watching this. Well done, and thank you.

I came for information on my favorite font and I was NOT let down!!! British/English documentaries are always best

I used this font to type my essays in school since it's my last name- and just a nice looking font. The standard was Times Roman but teachers didn't mind

Really enjoyed this. We run a walking tour of Birmingham which ends at the Virgil statue. Will include a link to this from our website.

I own a Baskervilles Bible, it belonged to the Castle of Mayo, Ireland, the pages are all present! The spine is very good the back and front covers with the Births Deaths and marriages are still there although detached, There are no amateur repairs, tape etc, so would be a bookbinders dream, printed in 1769!
