Thanks.  Yes, I have emailed the tug.org folks, but they haven't responded yet.

thus, you might try contacting people at:

as I see that Microprose had an ad in:

I'm searching for a text and math font based on Baskerville. I'm aware
of some Baskerville based text fonts for LaTeX (e.g. adapting Adobe's
Baskerville based font for LaTeX), but no math fonts.

A company named "MicroPress" offers (?) a product exactly like I'm
searching for: http://www.micropress -inc.com/fonts/bamath/bamain.htm

However, I have called and emailed the number and address listed on the
web page, but haven't been able to reach anyone.  My suspicion is that
MicroPress is no longer an active company.  If MicroPress ever was
active, then someone somewhere in the world is bound to have a copy of
the MicroPress BA Math Fonts.  Does anyone in this group have the fonts?
Does anyone in this group know anything about MicroPress or how I could
reach someone from the company?

Thanks.
