Signboard Archives 2000
Since 1958, Indianapolis residents have chuckled, groaned or cheered along with OneAmerica's signboard. Located on two corners of the company parking lot, the twin signboards are visible to commuters on two major downtown thoroughfares. OneAmerica is proud of its tradition, which provides a little levity to help people cope with the frantic pace of the world today.
