The story behind the story.
Wordsmith was born from the same creative spirit behind The Smith Henry - Johnpaul McLean’s Edmonds-based vintage boutique known for curating “perfectly imperfect” finds from bygone eras.
Inspired by his treasure-hunting mindset (and a past business, the Pew People, where he and his wife rented out vintage church pews), Johnpaul stumbled upon these iconic marquee panels and letters from the Admiral Theatre in Bremerton, WA, and the idea for Wordsmith was illuminated.
With the marquee standing 7 feet 6 inches tall and fully modular (from 7 to 21 feet wide), Wordsmith offers over 500 letters, symbols, and numbers so you can tell your message, wedding sentiment, proposal, or celebration story, letter by letter. Whether you’re celebrating a milestone, hosting a farmers market, or planning an unforgettable moment, this marquee transforms words into memories.
This is more than a sign. It’s a message worth framing. A moment worth remembering. Your story told, letter by letter.
