Directions
- Locate a digital copy of a vintage medical text on the internet and save the file to your device.

- Purchase a stack of off-white printer paper and produce the calculated quantity of prints, which comes to approximately 250 sheets.
- Trim the edges of the printed sheets to fit the desired layout while preserving a small border around each edge.
- Join the individual sheets end-to-end to form a long continuous banner that spans the entire width of the wall.
- Secure the assembled banner to the wall surface, attaching it section by section until the full coverage is complete.
