Some items to add to the article as citations Comment

Here are some things I found: He has several photographs in the collection of the Science & Society Picture Library, which is “The official picture library of the Science Museum Group. Representing the visual collections of the Science Museum, the Science & Industry Museum, the Science & Media Museum, Locomotion and the Railway Museum, as well as select contributors.” [1]...I’m guessing his work is in the Railway Museum collection. Five of his photographs were used on commemorative stamps in 1994: [2] and there was some exhibition mentioned as well, “Art in the Age of Steam Europe, America and the Railway, 1830-1960” which I believe was at the Mid-Continent Railway Museum. Small blurb about the five commemorative stamps: [3] and here:[4] The stamps are in the collection of the Science Museum Group [5] Had an exhibition at the National Railway Museum in 1996 according to this: [6] Had an exhibition at the Kidderminster Railway Museum in 2009: [7] Book review here: [8] Book review on Mechanical Landscapes (blog) [9] Article about him here: [10] also mentions he’s in an exhibition at Newcastle Art Centre.

I also propose changing the name of the section currently titled "Working for Ian Allan" to "1960s", since this article is on Gifford rather than Allan. Netherzone (talk) 13:40, 1 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
