2001: A Space Odyssey - Instructions for the Zero Gravity Space Toilet

Some of my favorite collector's items are movie paper props. I got a huge number of paper props for the Back-to-the-Future trilogy from the forums at therpf.com. Recently, I re-typed the "All work and no play..." typewriter pages from The Shining and posted these here. "2001: A Space Odyssey" movie is one of my all-time favorite movies. While it uses a lot of typesetting (which has been studied in great detail in this fantastic review), it does not contain many paper props. But there is one thing that I wanted to hang on my wall (next to my HAL 9000 replica): The instructions for the "Zero Gravity Toilet".

I created a document in legal size (8.5" x 14") in the Open Source Desktop Publishing software scribus and found fonts that closely match Eurostile Bold as described here.

I adjusted the spacing, to reproduce the spacing and the line breaks as seen in various movie images. At some point, I may build a light box, to make it exactly look as seen in the movie. Currently, I have it in a simple black frame.

In case somebody prefers to use less ink/toner, I also made a black-on-white version.

To get the full quality, click on the images, then right-click on the new image, and select "open image in new window" - there you right-click: "save image as".

PS: I just figured out that this does not give you the full quality, so I uploaded the hi-res .pdf file on my Google Drive.
