I am currently working on a type specimen for "Baskerville" typeface (my final project for the semester, which ends in 4 weeks). And unfortunately, we have no books about Baskerville specifically in our university library, And bookstores on this part of the world are not particularly into type :( . I was looking for his ornamental work. I would very much appreciate any information you can give me.Sincerely, H Hello,
