Afanasy Afanasyevich Astapov (1840–1917) was a Russian antiquarian bookseller and bibliophile. He rose from an employee to the owner of a bookstore and his own library of 10,000 volumes. He was one of the founders of the Moscow Bibliographic Circle. He published bookselling catalogues, which became valuable sources on the history of Russian books in the 18th–19th centuries. The collection includes A.A. Astapov’s memoirs, “Memoirs of an Old Bookseller,” “A Tale of His Life and the Book Business,” letters, and articles. The publication is supplemented with a name index.
