1. Early Magazine Covers
The covers had the title, and table of contents, and they were usually black and white, and were book like covers, and these lasted throughout the 1700's and 1800's. They were pretty generic.
2. The poster Cover
These covers did not need words. Were from the 1890's to the 1960's and they looked like they were meant to me hung onto a wall and framed. The logo goes into the art. They appeared on many types of magazines.
3. Pictures Married to Type
A lot of covers relied on cover lines for their covers. There were large titles, and subjects in cover might be interrupting it . There is usually a combination of activity and repose with confidence. Placement of type is judged heavily in these covers.
4. In the Forest of Words
These are what we normally use now in the 2000's. The subject is usually centered and has a lot of subtitles and words overlapping them everywhere with titles from inside the magazine. The images are not in the foreground anymore as the cover lines are taking over.
