Basker is an elegant serif typeface based on the classic design of John Baskerville that bear his name in about 1752.  It most known for its crisp edges, high contrast and generous proportions.

An excellent text typeface, this Baskerville design has a delicacy and grace that come from long, elegant serifs and the subtle transfer of stroke weight from thick to very thin.
