Of course! But a high resolution file is pretty large. Here is a file with 1600x2400 pixels and no visible jpg artifacts. If you need higher resolution (& less compression), I could email you the file.

Hi Marcus could you email me an uncompressed file

I have now created a pdf file for the carpet pattern (here on Google Drive).
This is vector graphics, and you can print it in any resolution.

Geting back to this thread.
Found online some more pics of the typewriter (1968 Adler Universal 39) used in the movie (from the Stanley Kubrick exhibit at Lacma in 2013).
On the 2nd pic you can also see the dresses and shoes worn by the Grady twins (Lisa and Louise Burns)

Hi all I found this version of the Ballroom photo....

This was probably colorized, as the original was black&white

Hope you like it.

"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" - 20 pages - formatted in Letter size.
I typed the first 18 pages, according to what is visible in the movie scene:

The last two pages are based on images that I found on the web.
Usually, only the upper 75% of the pages were visible, so I extrapolated the rest.
If you know how the other 480 pages were formatted, please let me know

That's a good question. Maybe get an old typewriter and insert one of the pages. Then print 10-50 copies of the others and place them in a stack nearby. Of course, this only works if you have an appropriate old typewriter plus extra space for the display. I have neither ...

I love this! Where did you get that hi-res image of Jack Nicholson?

Thanks. Just took a screen shot off the internet. Been a few years I think I just googled it. Here's my door vs the movie.

Oh I already did. I love it. Going to try and add it to my door somehow. Lol. Still have to mount my axe and write redrum on the door. Running out of room.

Wish I had room for a typewriter. That would be sweet.

I read the other day that they used the same axe in 1408 as they did in the shining. And here's something odd I did before learning that, the back of my shining door is the door from 1408. Lol
