Tom Hanks' obsession for typewriters
Washington, Feb 13 (ANI): Tom Hanks is so obsessed with his secret collection of typewriters that doesn't mind giving up a fortune to ship them from all corners of the world.
The Oscar winner actor boasts a haul of more than 100 manual, portable typewriters.
"(I collect them) from the 1930s until they stopped making them," Contactmusic quoted him, as saying.
And Hanks' hobby has cost him a small fortune in postage.
"I bought a 5 dollars typewriter from Australia that cost me 85 dollar to ship," he said. (ANI)
