The 34th font on our roundup of June's Top 100 Fonts.com Web Fonts list is almost 550 years old! OK, that's not exactly true; but the ITC Legacy® Serif typeface family is based on the typeface that Nicolas Jenson used to set his famous 1470 edition of Eusebius' "De evangelica praeparatione."

The genesis for ITC Legacy actually began several decades ago when Ron Arnholm was a graduate design student at Yale University. In a history of typography class, he was able to study, first hand, a copy of the 1470 book, set in Nicolas Jenson's type. It was (typographic) love at first sight.

"One of the oldest roman typeface designs, ITC Legacy Serif clearly has legs—and continues to prove its mettle as a popular Web font"

Years later, when Arnholm was an educator himself, he began to design what was to become the ITC Legacy family based on the 1470 Eusebius typeface. The first of the ITC Legacy series was announced in 1992. One of the oldest roman typeface designs clearly has legs – and continues to prove its mettle as a popular Web font.
