Font used in Spivak's textbook, "Calculus"

Question

Does anyone knows what's the font used in Michael Spivak's "Calculus" and "Calculus on Manifolds" ? I think they're not the same font. The point is that they're both very good fonts, and I didn't find any information anywhere.

Can someone point out what fonts were used?

Edit: Bellow there's a screenshot of Calculus:

If you have it in pdf format, you can use the linux utility pdffonts to find out what fonts are in it. — , Mar 10 '13 at 19:14
Actually this is answered in an appendix to DG1. He made the fonts himself. — isomorphismes, Dec 28 '15 at 07:45

Spivak's Calculus is typeset in Baskerville font, as the author states here, in the beginning paragraph remembering how the original MathTıme fonts were born:

If, 20-some years ago, when I was contemplating the next edition of my Calculus book, some one had offered me a reasonable set of math fonts (ones that could be used with Times, or with the Baskerville font in which Calculus is typeset) for the modest price of $1,000, say, then I would have jumped at the chance to obtain it.

Not really, if the linked article is to be believed the math font is MathTimes (designed by Spivak himself), sold at PCTeX.com. – vonbrand Mar 10 '13 at 16:55
But at the same time the text font is Baskerville, as stated at the forth line in the linked text: "the Baskerville font in which Calculus is typeset" – agt Mar 10 '13 at 17:31
You are right, somehow I misread OP as asking specifically for the math font only. – vonbrand Mar 10 '13 at 17:34
What about Calculus on Manifolds? – Randy Randerson Aug 12 '14 at 04:35

@fctaylor25, it was pointed out in a comment by egreg to a now deleted answer that the font is (some variant of) Monotype Modern. – hal46 Feb 10 '15 at 17:39
