Cover Analysis #4


Main image

The use of a large main image is to promote the content inside. The bigger the star, the more copies a magazine will sell. Hence why the image is large and centralized. 

Masthead

The iconic masthead is covered by the main image. Rolling stone has been running for decades and the front covers are legendary in their own right so the editors are not bothered if the whole masthead is covered, the magazine will still sell.
