A watermark is a faint imprint made into the text box area of certain cards.

Prerelease cards bear their expansion symbol as a watermark since Onslaught's Silent Specter, similarly release event cards bear their set symbol or logo. Other event cards not specific to a set bear the logo of that event, such as Friday Night Magic promo cards.

Some cards in the Ravnica block were given watermarks showing the guild from which they came. [1] In the Scars of Mirrodin block every single card that was not a basic land or a planeswalker bore the watermark of one of the two warring factions: Phyrexians and Mirrans. [2]
