1. Early magazine covers-Paintings or drawings no photo big color spots no date line no price and no bar code, simple very ethical toppings.
2. The poster cover-Picture and small words and on set of headlines does not have a bar code, small byline makes you want to look at the pictures, choose really good photo for the cover.
3. Picture married to type-Not as many words as forest of words all the text is on one side and less color. Text incorporated in the photo.
4. In the forest of word-Words all over the cover on both sides on bottom and top, different fonts different colors and different sizes.
