Yup, sure looks like a '97 Globe. I'd forgotten that Specialized also sold bikes in the 1990s under the Globe marque, before the mid-2000s revival of the Globe brand. Different logos too.

Looks like a Dutch style wheel lock on the rear too, just below the seat stay.

Looks like it might be a 3-speed with coaster brake, but I don't see a shifter -- maybe slightly obscured by the handlebar?

That would make a fine errand and casual bike. Better than my Globe Carmel, which has a sloping top tube but isn't a mixte or step through type, so it's still tricky to balance and mount with a heavy load.
