Bar Codes

From looking into bar codes I have actually gained knowledge that from my research bar codes are not usually put on the front cover of a newspaper, they are usually on the back. I did not know this before I researched this, this shows how important research actually is otherwise I would have created a bar code to go on the front cover of my newspaper when actually newspapers don't usually have this. I want to make my newspaper as realistic as possible which is why I have left the bar code out of the front cover due to my strong research.

As you can see in the image above, Whitstable Time do not have a bar code on the front cover of their newspaper. The publisher put the bar code on the back page. Although it does not have a bar code it does however include the price at the top of the page so the reader knows how much they are buying it for.
