[GreenKeys] Glue for joining punched tape

[Don Robert House K9TTY]

The 5-level tape splicer was used only with Chadless paper tape.  The splicer had pins that poked the "toilet seats" together by having the ends of the tape punched with LTRS.
5, 6, 7, and 8 level tape with fully punched holes were spliced using adhesive patches with the tape laid over a block with pins then placing the patch on the using a roller to affix the patch.
These devices show up on eBay every once in a while.
