Abstract: A manual flying paster for an efficient inexpensive manner of manually splicing a sequence of three rolls of newsprint as one continuous feed to small printing presses. The paster includes a pivotable cradle which can be directly mounted upon the existing rollstand frame of such small presses to allow a first expiring horizontal rear newsprint roll to be spliced onto a full forward newsprint roll, and then a new rear newsprint roll to be spliced onto the second expiring front newsprint roll for a continuous operating sequence of three newsprint rolls.
