Not Louisiana, but I got this one as a gift. It was made by a guy in Pascagoula, MS, but I’m not sure of the year.

That appears to be what is known as a "Pascagoula Decoy" which was likely make by a wood lathe in a factory in that town. If so, the factory operated in the 1930's.

There were several decoy factories in the Pascagoula area. Hudson Manufacturing Company, Victor Animal Trap Decoy Factory and Pascagoula Decoy Company (PADCO). However, this is a Grubbs Manufacturing Company decoy.
The Pascagoula decoys are easily identified by the deep lathe rings; however, most offered an upgraded smooth model. They cranked out thousands of these things, and, even in pristine condition, they're not very valuable.
