remarques
LeRoy Neiman (1921-2012), an internationally known painter long associated with boxing, the Olympics and other sports subjects, periodically drew small images called "remarques" on the white borders around the poster....
A remarque (which comes from a French word meaning "remark" or "note") is a drawing or other embellishment made by an artist in the border of a print. Remarques were originally made to test parts of the printing process; now they're usually added to increase the price, uniqueness or perceived value of a print.
