In the old days I had the maths history poster made by IBM on my classroom walls.

“In 1966 IBM printed a famous timeline poster called Men of Modern Mathematics for the years 1000 AD to 1950 AD. It was based on personal stories about (mainly Western) mathematicians and their mathematical achievements. The poster was designed by the famous Charles Eames, with the content concerning mathematicians contributed by Professor Raymond Redheffer of UCLA.” – Wikipedia

What do I put up now to inspire my students? That is my puzzle lately. I would prefer things that are free and legal to copy. Any suggestions?
