Brian,

Put the GIF file on a 3.5' ProDOS-formatted disk.
Boot the Apple File Exchange Utility (a standard piece of System
  software) on your Mac.
Insert the ProDOS disk into the Mac (do this AFTER AFE has started;
  otherwise the Mac will want to initialize it!)
Under the ProDOS to Macintosh menu, choose Binary transfer.
Select the file & tell AFE to copy it onto the Mac.
Quit AFE.

You now have a GIF file on the Mac.  Take a look at it with GIFFER or
other suitable software.

                                        Have fun!
