1. Early Magazine Covers- In the mid-1700s, the earliest magazines had an opening page to a title and table of contents. When early magazines used covers, they modeled them after the covers of books. It contained the title and publication data. There were no descripttion indicating what would be found inside the magazine. Cover lines began to appear within such generic covers in the later 1800s.
2. The Poster Cover- The Poster cover was very popular the 1890s all the way to the 1960s. It is an artistic technique that took over graphic design at the time. The covers of many of the big, oversized magazines looked like they should be printed and hung on the wall.
3. Pictures Married to Type- This is when the cover of a magazine interacts with the text and captions on the cover. It is either incorporated with the image, or is hidden behind it.
4. In the Forest of Words- this included strong cover art and font type. Magazines in the 90s made cover lines just as prominent as cover art. It included vivid colors and quality images.
