Also known as Rubber Cement - Elmer's and other brands remain in production. No sure about these days, but years ago commercial artists of all types would use it in their mock-ups. I grew up with it. In the Fifties my father had a Sunday paper comic strip. I still have a lot of his originals. He would draw on a giant stock poster board. Afterward, if he didn't like how something turned out he would redraw it on another piece, cut it out, and affix it over the section he wanted to change. Then it would go to the colorist and printers and look great in the paper. And yes, over a long period of time the stuff dries out and falls off. And yes, there are residue brown stains still.
