Russian map questions

I have been collecting Russian and Tartary maps for a few years now and have a few questions.
 
1.  I have Bagrow as my main reference.  Any other good books out there?
2.  I rarely, if ever, see Russian language maps available on the market.  Does anybody know of dealers in these maps?
3.  I have a Speed - Russia map which appears to be almost an exact copy of two maps by other cartographers as shown in Bagrow.  Is this common?
4. Can anyone quote Ortelius Tartary and Russia maps from the English edition of his atlas? 
5. Finally, I am organizing my maps in an historical context reflecting changes in the growth of the Russian empire over time.  I have a few good histories of Russia and one that focuses on using maps.  Any other suggestions for reference material besides those offered in relation to question 1?
 
Thank you,
