When Olle Eksell (1918-2007) was fourteen years old he decided to become a commercial illustrator. During the war, he went to school for illustration and graphic design. His most famous logo would be the well-known eyes of Mazetti (Ögonkakao). He illustrated logos for big companies and magazines and in every-day life, in Sweden, you can't go a day without spotting at least one company logo that he's designed. He loved illustrating pens and birds and did so in a quirky, smart, and playful way. Olle Eksell has among other prints designed "Italiensk Blomsterhylla", "Happy bird day", "Fåglarna berättar" and "Strömming" for Almedahls.
