The fireplace crackled, illuminated presents glowed, and a selection of Christmas tree ornaments spangled the walls.

Tom Furrier wants to apologize for “the mess.” It’s a Friday morning in May, and Furrier is trying to explain the setup of his shop, Cambridge Typewriter, a tight, shotgun-style space in Arlington, Massachusetts.
