Intro

The Stadium: Images and Voices of the Original Yankee Stadium

My dad and I, holding hands tightly,

I first started selling ice cream,

I still remember the first time I walked into the Stadium

Went to my first game in '43, when I was 9 years old.

We ran a series of shops behind home plate,

Going to a Yankee game back in the '40s was a spur-of-the-moment thing. My teenage friends and I all lived in the Bronx.
