Reading Response | A Brief History of Type

Some of the things that I found interesting about the article were the categories of which several typefaces fall upon (ex. Baskerville falls under Transitional) as well as knowing what "Blackletter", "Fat Faces", and "Synthesis" refers to. Also, I like the fact that I got a bit of a history lesson in how printing and typesetting evolved/began and how the "standards" of working with type came to be..
