There are several professional level, commercial PS plugins that have
100's or 1000's of frames. That looks like it might have been created
from one of those.

Alternatively, you could create the frame yourself. It is not that
hard. Let's see:

1. Create a new layer
2. Fill with black
3. Select center area, and delete it
4. Rough up the remaining edge area (by selecting/deleting sections,
adding white patches, etc)
5. Run some filters on the remaining border to rough it up some more.

Well... you get the idea.
