I have this photo with a different perspective of Yankee Stadium - high up in the right field bleachers showing a vendor. From the guys on the field, I believe this to be the 1957 season, which fits with the clothes the fans are wearing. #14 is playing first base, which was Moose Skowron's number from 1955-1962. The second baseman appears to be wearing #29, which is the number Yanks' second baseman Bobby Richardson wore for just the 1957 season.
And finally, to my questions. The vendor's hat says "Cup 20 c" and "Stick 15 c". Any ideas on "cup" and "stick"? Thanks in advance.

In the 40s/50s (probably longer) some commercial ice cream was pre-packaged in butter-like sticks in some areas.
This is musing more than an answer, btw. I have no idea about NYC ice cream distribution during the 50s...

I would guess ice cream too. I’ve seen other photos of vendors with other labels on their hats like hot dogs. Seems like they’ve always sold one thing.
