Up until
recent times, the firm of WGphoto held many of the glass negatives produced by the studio of
Walter Gardiner between 1893 and 1955. A selection of these images can
be viewed in the archive section of the
WGphoto website.
In November 2007, Mike Hemsley, the owner of WGphoto placed around
116,000 images from the Walter Gardiner Archive into the safe hands of
West Sussex County Library Services for posterity. The WGphoto archive can be viewed at http://www.wgphoto.co.uk/archive.htm . There are also links to the WGphoto archive through the picture of Gardiner's Bath Place Studio in 1893 (left). |
