A Type Specimen
This type specimen is the result of a month long project for my Typography 1 class. It aims to exemplify the original ideals of John Baskerville's most famous masterpiece, Baskerville. A typeface created with the sole intent of establishing a higher standard for all printed media. And it is my belief that this ideal still holds true even to this day, nearly 300 years later in an era of digital media.
