Would you say that another definition of marquee could be a "printed educational chart"? I think so. Let's look at the words:

Printed - I don't think anyone will argue this one. They are definitely printed. Although I have seen some (really ugly) hand drawn ones that wouldn't pass.

Educational - From the definition I found on the web: "Serving to educate; instructive. The act or process of educating or being educated.". I think providing the name of a game is definitely educational.

Chart - Hmmm...on first thought, this might be a tough one. But maybe not, here's the definition I found: "A sheet of paper, pasteboard, or the like, on which information is exhibited.". I think plexi or glass qualifies as "or the like", and information is definitely exhibited, so I think it passes this one too.

Still not convinced? I have one more angle to try to pursuade you:

Mailing a 1 pound 8 ounce marquee from Chicago Il to Austin TX via USPS:

$7.10 = Priority Mail, 1-3 day delivery
$7.02 = Parcel Post, 2-8 day delivery
$2.77 = Media Mail (of which "Printed Educational Chart" is one of the definitions), 2-8 day delivery

So, that maybe change your mind (if you weren't in any major hurry for the item)? Delivery confirmation is also available under Media Mail too.
