Ticker Tape is different. No holes. Stock prices printed on it. You know those stock price "crawlers" on TV, at your broker's, and in Times Square? Those are a simulation of ticker tape. Picture that stock crawler printed on paper tape -- that's ticker tape. The printing device was called a Ticker because of the noise it made. You seem them in old photos.
