Personally, I like the style of the 60's remotes the best (pic 7,8,9,10,&11). They were small, fit nicely the palm of the hand, and looked very attractive. Zenith kind of went downhill with the bigger bulky ones after that IMO. What were they thinking!
A couple of other things I liked better about those old remotes is that they would work much better and at greater distance than the new IR remotes found today. And it didn't matter how they were pointed either. Never had to change batteries either.
I wouldn't say the older sets worked better than what we see today but the old remotes were superior in many ways. You won't find any metal in a modern IR remote.
