Cover Date

Cover date refers to the date displayed on the covers of periodical publications such as magazines and comic books. This is not necessarily the true date of publication. For some publications, the cover date may not actually be found on the cover, but rather on an inside jacket or on an interior page.

Famous quotes containing the words cover and/or date:

    Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)

    Ev’rythin’s up to date in Kansas City.
    Oscar Hammerstein II (1895–1960)
