After his death in 1960 much of his work was donated to the National Gallery of Canada. In 1979 The National Gallery mounted an exhibition of the watercolors and produced the catalogue Mr. Jackson's Mushrooms which reproduces forty-odd images and accompanies them with excerpts from his field notes.
