Czech astrophilatelists will be launching a postmark meter slogan type of cancel to commemorate the 105th Birthday of German rocket pioneer Eugen Sänger on 22 September 2010.

Sänger was born in the Bohemian town of Presnice; a village that has today disappeared under the waters of a dam.

For this cancel, two cacheted covers will be issued, one showing one of Sänger's projects called "Silber bird", the other showing a view of Presnice.

Additionnally, a personalized stamp showing Sänger's portrait will be produced.
