[3], which appears to be from 1932, includes a description, but is from after the
Airline Highway opened and thus doesn't help answer the above question. I'll summarize it anyway:
Originally it followed SR 1 all the way. By 1932 it had been moved to Broad Street, Tulane Avenue, Airline Highway to Prairieville, SR 1 (now LA 73) to Baton Rouge, SR 7 (now US 190?) to west of Krotz Springs, SR 1252 (now US 71) to Lebeau, SR 1 (now US 71) to Alexandria, bridge under construction in 1932 (at Fort Buhlow?) to Pineville, SR 1 (now US 71) to Clarence, SR 10 (now US 71) to Bossier City, SR 4 (now US 80?) to Shreveport, and SR 1 (now US 80) to Texas.
Per the newsgroup posting linked above, the old Jefferson Highway and SR 1 used LA 76, LA 77, and LA 10 between Baton Rouge and Lebeau and LA 6, LA 120, LA 175, and US 171 between Clarence and Shreveport. --
