Magazine II

For early magazine covers, the main attribute was a generic image used either to symbolize or just to decorate the cover. This was typically in the middle of the cover surrounded by a simple, common format of text. For the poster cover, there would be an beautiful or interesting image used as the focal point of the cover without covering it with other text. For the pictures married to type, the image and  title tend to intertwine creating a 3-d, overlapping effect. For in the forest of words, cover lines were used to catch the buyer's attention. These deliver the message across and attracts the buyer to read more about it.
