David Green Collection
 
 
During the 1970’s David Green provided significant conspicuity research input to emergency agencies in Australia. David has provided Ambulance Visibility with copies of his research papers and magazine articles for inclusion in the AV Reference Library where they are published together for the first time. Some documents may also appear under other subjects in the library. 
 
David has kindly provided his work as both a historical reference and as summaries of the field as it was in the late 1970s. A number of articles are from publications that are no longer in print and are provided for information. If any copyright holders have any objection, please contact Ambulance Visibilty.
