Israel's State Emblem - Until the official publication of the new State Emblem in February 1949 the Committee of Ministers responsible for selecting the emblem asked Shamir brothers for several changes to their original design. Over the years government agencies, designers, printers and architects allowed themselves to make changes to the official design. The most common change one can see occasionally is dropping the shield. Shamir Brothers included this element in their design since their studies revealed that most countries at that time based their state emblem on the shape of a shield to express their sovereignty and statehood. The first who dropped the shield for the design was Richard Har'el the adviser to the government's symbols Committee. He replaced the shield with a square for the President's banner. His design was approved by President Chaim Weizmann.

Israel Post Logo - The original Israel Post icon was designed by Shamir Brothers in 1948 and was displayed for almost 40 years at all post office branches and on their cars, mailboxes, publications and official documents and forms. In 1986 the status of the Post Office was changed from a Government Ministry to a  Government Authority. At that point the new Authority's management decided to change the logo, but did not change the basic design concept of the famous deer. Twenty two years later the Authority became a Government company. The new management wanted to create a new face for the postal service and redesigned all its branches as well as its icon. To reflect the era where speed is paramount the designer of the new icon tried to express greater speed of a running deer by tearing his body and stretching his legs.

 "Made in Israel" was the name of an exhibition held in Tel Aviv in 1923. The Society for the Encouragement of the use of the produce of the country over imports from abroad was active during the years of the mandate. The Icon/Logo designed by Shamir brothers consisted of a stylised menorah with an industry icon (gear) and an agricultural icon (sheaves). Parallel efforts were made in the 30s to encourage consumption of Jewish agricultural products ("the Hebrew Banana" for example) instead of Arab produce and the consumption of Jewish Eretz Israel industrial goods ("Israeli - smoke Israeli").

The Council for a Beautiful Israel was established in 1968 by Ora Herzog, wife of President Chaim Herzog (and mother of the current (6/2014) leader of the opposition Buzi Herzog).
