Heinz Klaus Strick's histories

Every month for 20 years Heinz Klaus Strick produced a mathematical calendar page, illustrated with postage stamps from his extensive collection. These were published in the on-line magazine Spektrum. English translations of these were later published, first by the European Mathematical Society and later in MacTutor.

You can see the original German calendar pages at THIS LINK.
