I did see several times on eBay black and white photographic proofs for sale.
What are these?
How do they fit in the total printing process?
Thanks a lot for any suggestion

What you link to is a publicity photo of a stamp to be issued. Sometime those photos show a slightly different version from the final issued stamp.

Then there are the photographs as part of stamp design work: http://goscf.com/t/52445
