Excellent idea (and list)!

Alan Hoenig recently mentioned the Cardo Font in a missive:
http://scholarsfonts.net/cardofnt.html
Bembo clone, but sadly no italic yet.

Also there's the mnsymbol font to go with the free copy of MinionPro  
from AR:
http://www.hft.ei.tum.de/mz/MnSymbol10.otf

Free UCS Outline Fonts:
http://www.nongnu.org/freefont/

and of course there're the various Polish fonts, Antykwa Torunska &c.

There're a couple of free sample OpenType fonts which people may find  
of use:

FontFont gives away URWGroteskTOT-ExtLigExtWid.otf
http://www.fontfont.com/

Elsner & Flake give away AlternateGothicEFOP-NoTwo.otf
http://www.elsner-flake.com/

Fonthaus provides Metro Sans Light
http://www.fonthaus.com/specials/type.cfm

all sans serif though.

The FontLab folks used to have some free samples, but I don't see  
them available anymore.

And of course there're lots of free fonts of the 1,001 fonts on a CD- 
ROM ilk, but they're probably not worth mentioning here.
