A recreation of the 9x16px typeface used for the IBM PS/2's VGA display. This font maps the extended ASCII character set defined by IBM Code Page 437 to the equivalent Unicode character.
Each character is 9x16px, and the font is best rendered at a size of 13px.
For reference, the Unicode characters included are listed below:
☺☻♥♦♣♠•◘○◙♂♀♪♫☼►◄↕‼¶§▬↨↑↓→←∟↔▲▼

A recreation of the font used on the early CRT terminals from IBM, based on this source by Marcin Wichary.
I find there is a particular charm in the crudeness of some solutions compared to subsequent iterations or other 5x7 pixel fonts (see, for example, the numerals and |C|U|Y|).
I reproduced only the characters shown in the aforelinked image, placing them in what I considered to be the appropriate Unicode place.
I tried to look for some more glyphs (comma anyone?) but failed to find reliable sources.
This is the screen font from the IBM 5100 Portable Computer. It is uppercase-only, and has a large repertory of APL-related characters as well. Of note is that no two adjacent horizontal dots are ever both active, because the font might have also been intended to be used with a dot-matrix printer.
