Locarno arrives in Israel

Thanks to Sa'ar Alon, head of the designs department at Reinhold Cohn & Partners, for news that Israel has adopted the Locarno International Classification system (more or less).  Here is a link to their newsletter article.  He says also that the Israeli Minister of Justice recently published a bill for a new design law intended to replace the old Design Ordinance (which dates back to 1926 and is probably a relic of the old UK law) - we will keep you posted when we learn more.
