Port City of the Inland Empire

Lewiston rose where the Clearwater and Snake Rivers meet, becoming the gateway that connected the Inland Empire to the Pacific. In the early 1900s, steamboats and rail lines carried timber, grain, and goods from Spokane, the Palouse, and the Silver Valley downriver toward the coast. As Idaho’s first territorial capital and its only seaport, Lewiston played a vital role in moving the resources and stories of the Northwest from mountain to market.

The Retro Script Collection highlights Lewiston’s role as the port city of the Inland Empire. In the early 1900s, grain, timber, and supplies moved down the Clearwater and Snake Rivers, linking Spokane and the interior Northwest to markets far beyond the region. Rail lines and riverboats turned Lewiston into a vital crossroads where inland industry met the open water. With its vintage lettering and classic design, this collection celebrates the history of a town built on movement, connection, and the currents that carried the Inland Northwest forward.
