Cover Types

                                                          I. Early Magazine Covers

In the early times when the magazines started they didn't really have pictures on the they were based on book covers and only had the title of what the magazine contained inside

 
II. The Poster Cover: Pictures that need no words
 

In the 1890s to the 1960s people started putting more pictures in the magazines but not that many words in the just the title and some other sentences.
 
 
III. Pictures Married to Type
 
During this time Magazines had more writing in themes and cover lines started to be more common.
 
 For example this picture has a lot of writing and the face of the model overlapping the title.
 
 
IV. In the Forest of Words
 
By this time magazines have a lot of writing and a brief story of what the magazine contains. Also these magazines started to have a lot of pictures, more colors and too much writing in them, pretty much everywhere.
