This image is part of a promotional brochure produced in the early 1980s by The World Government of the Age of Enlightenment, (a branch of Transcendental Meditation) the former owners of Mentmore Towers, who occupied the near empty house and gave flying lessons there (not London to New York, but straight up and down while sitting on a magic carpet or whatever). Realising this had limited success as a business venture, they then branched into the rather more lucrative world of film. Their brochure was sent out to many film companies in the hope of leasing the house as a film set.
