Some publishing companies utilize this as a means of establishing a sense of illusion with regard to the chronological age of a product (so as to create the impression of a faux-type of significance in the nostalgic sense), but, in most instances, deckled pages are a by-product of time. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE - If any of the items being featured here pique your interest, please don't hesitate to visit us online at our other Etsy sales venue at https://www.etsy.com/shop/OneReDunn where we have a large selection of vintage collectibles, novelty pieces, art, and household accessories tailored to fit your specific needs. 3000-428
