Cover History

The early magazine covers were those of the early 1700's-1800's. They were mostly the begining types that had more writing then actual pictures on them. The poster cover refers to those created first late 18th century and later mid 1900's. This was when people begin to notice that one picture should dominate the cover, making it the center of attention as to catch the eye. This was when pictures very used more frequently then words on the cover. The Marry to type idea was the fact of covers using headlines to draw eyes to them and pull viewers in while yet including also very artistic pictures for the viewing eye to see. This was the rage of the 20th's century, mostly in the late 1900's. The "In The Forest of Words" method was that refering to the use of the covering having a cover picture that covered the entire cover while being swallowed up by words, used or learned of in the 21st century.
