Frank Percy Doel (14 July 1908 – 22 December 1968) was an antiquarian bookseller for Marks & Co in London, England who achieved posthumous fame as the recipient of a series of humorous letters from American author Helene Hanff, to which he scrupulously and, at first, very formally replied. The shop where he worked was at 84 Charing Cross Road, the title of a bestselling novel written by Hanff which became a cult classic, a stage play, and a film, in which Doel was played by Anthony Hopkins and Hanff by Anne Bancroft.
