What Is The Difference Between A Splice And A Paste Up?

Does anyone know if a splice and a paste up are synonymous terms or do they differentiate between different techniques used to join paper? I've read that the term paste up implies the use of tape or paste. That leads me to wonder if a splice means joining the paper with a more advanced technology?

I'm trying to learn more about this coil strip that I won in an auction lot:


Thanks for your thoughts.

A splice is used to repair (reattach) a broken strip of printing paper, usually before but can be after printing when using a roll of paper rather than individual sheets. However, there are examples of splices of sheet stamps before the final perforation. That is quite rare. In all such cases, the spliced area is normally captured and discarded as printer's waste. However, at times it is missed and ends up be normally sold via proper official channels

A paste-up is a planned connecting as part of normal printing and assembly of the final product. For example, early coils were made by pasting together individual sheets of printed stamps before slicing them into coil strips. The overlap is the paste-up. Whatever markings are on the selvage used for the paste-up will be found on paste-up coils such as plate numbers.

So the OP has a splice?

Yes.
