The Ashtray Show: Original works that transform the humble ashtray into art

The Beatles, 1967 © Jane Bown Estate. This previously unseen photograph of The Beatles in Knole Park, Sevenoaks was taken during the filming of a promo for Penny Lane. Jane came across the band in the park by chance as she walked her dog. She returned to the house to get a camera but only had colour cibachrome film. Although these photographs were never officially published by The Observer colour magazine, they were kept on file in case they were ever required.
