I sent many typewriters that I have collected to Tom. His workmanship is magnificent. Tom was trained in typewriter repairs in Europe and has been working in Elgin Street since he arrived in the 1960s. He offers a friendly and good value typewriter service and repair. But he's very very busy and the only typewriter repair shop in Melbourne at the moment.
Mr Tom Koska is one of the last experts in this Rare Trade. Bring a typewriter in for maintenance or choose from reconditioned models. All the classic brands, portable and desktop. He knows his stuff. I'm now the proud owner of an Olivetti Lettera 32
I came in to the shop on Monday with a broken mainspring from my imperial typewriter. Tom was very honest and said he wasn’t sure if he’d be able to replace it as it’s a very old model but was going to try his best. On Tuesday I got a call from him saying he found one! I couldn’t be any happier, typewriter now fixed and fully working.
Lovely man is Tom Koska. I needed of all things a key for my Olivetti Lexicon 80 typewriter. I visited his amazing shop which was a wonderful experience in itself. I was not confident he would have the key I needed but to my astonishment, among his collection of typewriters and bits & pieces throughout his shop he eventually found the key to fit my typewriter, and the correct key at that, the letter 'U'. I am very thankful & would not hesitate to return if my typewriter is in need of TLC.
Tom is an absolute legend at 82 - he has done a fantastic job restoring and repairing my 1930's Imperial Good Companion typewriter back into working order again after 25+ years non-functional because I didn't know someone who could repair it! Tom has a passion for keeping these beautiful old historical pieces alive and working - such a beautiful man - Bless you Tom 🙏 ❤️
