Magazines Part II
1. Early Magazine Covers-
These magazine covers typically start with a title page and table of contents. They are modeled after books, so they give information about the publication dates and often have graphics on the cover that give no information about what is inside the magazine. Some of the magazines didn't even have a cover, so the articles would start one the very first page.
2. The Poster Cover-
These covers often consisted of only pictures, illustrations, or photographs. Little to no text was included on the cover, so the photo on the cover often gave readers an idea of what was inside the magazine or would portray a certain mood to the viewer. The only words that may have been included were the magazine name and logo.
3. Pictures Married to Type-
These covers included both text and pictures, and they focused the cover around cover lines, which are short blurbs/phrases that give a general idea of the articles within a magazine. The art and photographs would go along with the cover lines, and overlapping layers were a strong design created with this type of cover. It is now one of the most used magazine covers.
4. In the Forest of Words-
These magazine covers have a picture or photograph in the background of the cover, and around the subject of the image, cover lines and text fill the page. The text explains what the magazine is about, which helps it target its intended audience and attract readers. This is also one of the most popular forms of magazine covers.
