Hollywood actor thanks Scotland’s only typewriter mechanic for ‘keeping the machines alive’ in ‘gorgeous letter’
An Edinburgh bookseller and Scotland’s only typewriter mechanic has been hailed a hero by Tom Hanks for his dedication to the machines.
In the summer Tom Hodges, who runs Typewronger Books in Edinburgh, sent a letter to the actor to let him know of his shop and the typewriter exhibition currently running at the National Museum of Scotland.
