"North Dakota 42" should actually be "South Dakota 42". :) I know this blog entry is 4 years old, but I noticed a mistake. “North Dakota 42″ should actually be “South Dakota 42″. :)

Any shields you saw that had yellow numerals instead of white were either error shields or older shields from over a decade ago. Also, I've never seen the "white box concept" in North Dakota. Every ND guide sign I've seen that includes a county route used the blue pentagon.
