Re: New hand on deck!
Hello Håkan and Bonzo and welcome to the forum...love the wall display cases.
In answer to your question of 47b “what code is that” (47b first image) it looks like it is subject to the size of the side decal.
From your images we can see gpw, snap in base, short roof decal, short man, but the side decal on the left looks to be a different size than one on the right. This may just be the angle of the photo, trick of the camera.
Here is a picture for you to compare yours. Note the height of the Lyon Maid door decal is measured at coloured panel, not the white border.
I would suggest from what I see as it being an unlisted code and would place it at code 9a for MJ Stannard or code 10a for NJ if it is 4.75mm side decal.
I have edited where your code could fit in Nicks table, image attached.
Nick last updated the 47b codes in February 2013 and there have been a couple of changes since then.
Another item of interest you may not be aware of is that there are two versions of the man with coat touching floor with the difference being the head is below the window when looking straight on from the side.
Attached is a black and white image of decal size ( I have marked in yellow arrows) and you can also pick the shade difference in colours in B&W photo which shows even more so in the coloured version I have compiled. These decals are subject to fading if your ice cream vender has been selling in the sun.
This is one model where there is a vast difference between the major catalogues from there being less than 20 variation codes to 36, my codes are base on MJ Stannard and Nick’s codes.
If this is a confirmed code it would be worthwhile adding it here for future reference.

Re: New hand on deck!
I measured the decals, and they are 4,75 mm, both of them (thank you for using the metric system now!). I also think its safe to say that the short man is below the window. Here´s few more pictures from the side and one of the brace.
I must say I'm really of to a flying start if I can show you a new version !
