Citing the Cover of a Genealogy Quarterly

I am having trouble coming up with an appropriate citation for the cover photograph and its description on the inside cover from a genealogy quarterly. I believe that I should be following the journal article print edition format, but am unsure since there is not necessarily an author or article title.

Caitlin, yes, that's the right format to follow. When you don't have an author, you leave that field blank (EE 14.3) In the article title field, you'd enter the caption that's under the photo, in quotation marks. The rest of the citation would be the same as any journal article, with one exception. In lieu of the page number, you'd say something like "front cover photo and description on inside front cover."
