Thus the creation of the museum collections was set up. In 1945, the museum was named after the Russian scientist and inventor Alexander Stepanovich Popov, who first in the world used radio signals to transmit a message over distance that started an epoch of radio communication.〔 By the late 1970s, the museum housed more than 4 million stamps, stamped envelopes, and postcards.〔 Nowadays, the museum is a leading institution in its field in the Russian Federation.
