1. Early magazine covers- The modeled these covers after book covers most of the time. They are richly decorated and symmetric. They dedicated the opening page to a title and table of contents. They also put descriptive words to describe the magazine on the cover too.
2. The poster cover- The cover picture wasnt related to the magazine, it depicted a "mood" in the reader. Not alot of words on the cover. The covers have to have a single focus, with a hint of a theme. Gives some kind of physical impression on you.
3. Pictures married to type- Lots of words on the cover. Lots of lines on the cover, cover lines draw attention to the cover. Looks like an advertisement cover. Photos play the role for the cover. Color seperation. Large title with models face covering it.
4. In the forest of words- Very vivid and cluttered. Cover lines were as important as the cover picture. Some have cover lines larger then the title itself. The cover reflects the culture of the time being. Bold graphic covers. Image and cover lines overlap usually.
