I think that cutout shields like those here in CA should be used, I still like the black on white design of the sign

I agree. In Maryland they use the usual shield and often use these giagantic shields on US 50. On one side road though I once saw a cutout shield like the California-use sheilds. The only difference, no US at the top and no black outline ... basically the majority-use black and white with the black missing from the border. I thought it looked very clean and not horribly intrusive. I think it or the CA-use US Highway shield would make a good replacement.

The rest of the country can make their US signs as purple as Barney's ass for all I care but leave California's US shields alone. Black-bordered cutout with the "US" banner is classic. It's bad enough we've gone to the radioactive-glow green guide signs and the funny-shaped Interstate & State Highway shields (Californians know what I'm talking about).

Absolutely. Bring back the cutouts. All those square blank US shields look like state routes.
