1. Early covers were usually modeled after books and did not have a full on, true cover, like modern magazines. They had no descriptive words and every once in a while had a picture. Sometimes the opening page was plainly just a title and table of contents. Other types just had an image that described the magazine and told a story in of itself.
2. The poster cover used mainly just a picture that took up most of the cover. The covers were to be made to look like they could be normally hung on your wall like any other picture. It contained a cover line and title with small amounts of information around the main aspect, the picture.
3. This relied heavily on cover lines to draw in people passing by. They started putting carrying dialogue over the picture. They're is a relationship between both the picture and the text and they coincide with each other to form a bond. The text tends to overlap the picture.
4. These have really taken over making words larger than the pictures at times. The cover lines were new, loud, and almost shocking to readers. At times the cover lines were even larger then the actual title of the magazine.
