These covers illustrate the "poster cover" that dominated sophisticated magazine design from the mid-1920s until the 1950s. A poster cover can be thought of as a picture suitable for framing -- or nearly so. Poster covers have few if any cover lines, and such cover lines are strongly overshadowed by the illustration.
One of the major trends in 20th century magazine design was the gradual increase in the use of cover lines in those magazines that were usually considered leaders in industry and design, until, by the end of the century, cover lines threatened to dominate the cover photograph
