It is commonly called a "black print" by some. It is a publicity photo of a new issue distributed to publishers of stamp newspapers and magazines to report on new issues.

re: What do you call this ?

Sorry, just came across this thread and then googled it. If it is about twice the size of a postage stamp, then it is a photo proof, not a publicity photo. Here is a link to an article explaining:Linn's Stamp News

Edit: Sorry, I should have said "photo essay."
