Early magazine covers are in black and white and don't have many pictures. They only have a small picture and a title or a little more type, but not much at all. The magazines were basically plain.
The Poster Cover has a cover photo that takes up the whole page or most of it. There sometimes is a title at the top but other wise there is no other words on the cover.
Pictures Married to Type are covers with mostly words and a picture background. The type fits where ever it can filling up any empty space.
In the Forest of Words the subject of the photo is not the magazines main concern because the words overlap most of the photo. Sometimes the words frame the portrait or encircle it. There are small and large type deciding the main parts of the magazine.
