The picture with Joseph How (My Grandfather) might be of the globe before bomb damage & reconstruction. My Cousin now deceased told me that prior to the war, the globe was set further back. I don’t know how that was possible. This might alternatively be of the Shakespeare’s Head, 28 Barnsley Street which would fit with the year.
