Cover History

Early Magazine Covers started out with no picture really and had a title and a table of contens on the front. Soon to come is when simple pictures came along, and they made a book-like cover which came out in the 1700s and 1800s and was soon everywhere. The coveres seemd to get more detailed photos.
The Poster Cover was a Cover where there was a large dominate photo. It was poster like and had minimum words on the cover. The covers of many of these oversized magazines looked like they were printed to be hung up on a wall.
Pictures Married to Type focused on using lines in the cover. The placement of the photo determins the depth of layering planes. The bottom crosses two or more planes as it comes forward to the right of the picture pushing the lines forwards with it.
In the Forest of Words is the more modernt look we have today. The photo has diffrent subtitles surouding the photo. The covers photo is just as important and has nomber of vivid color lines. The image and the color lines over lap, and the modles pose leaves room around to place the color lines.
