Heralds on parade

It was reported in the Standard Triumph Review April 1965.

No, it isn't all done by mirrors! The nine cars neatly lined up are the latest Heralds to join the fleet of Andersons (Tobacconists) Ltd., of Reddish, Stockport. They were pictured outside the premises of the suppliers, Paramount Garages, a member of the Hollingdrake Group, as they were handed over to their new owners.
