Product Details

Here is an absolutely fantastic piece of vintage New York Yankees and Yankee Stadium memorabilia! This original Harry M. Stevens Inc. New York Yankees popcorn container dates to the classic era of Yankees baseball and was designed to do double duty at the ballpark. Fans enjoyed their popcorn from the cone-shaped container, then removed the bottom disc and — “EASY AS 1-2-3” — turned it into a megaphone to cheer on the Yankees! But the real star of this piece is the incredible vintage Yankees graphics. Front and center is the famous Yankees Top Hat and Bat logo, featuring that unmistakable Uncle Sam-style red, white and blue top hat sitting atop the baseball and bat. Few Yankees logos capture classic Americana quite like this one. The Uncle Sam top hat, stars, red-and-white stripes and Yankees script make this an outstanding display piece even for someone who doesn't normally collect stadium concessions. The entire design screams old Yankee Stadium — especially that wonderful Uncle Sam top hat! DETAILS: Vintage New York Yankees popcorn container/megaphone Manufactured by Harry M. Stevens Inc. Approximately 1960s era Original Yankees Top Hat and Bat graphics Fantastic Uncle Sam-style red, white & blue top hat Patriotic stars-and-stripes design Marked NET WT. 1 OZ. Original instructions around the bottom: “EASY AS 1-2-3” Designed to convert from a popcorn container into a cheering megaphone Wonderful piece of Yankee Stadium concession history Excellent display item for a Yankees, Mickey Mantle-era or vintage baseball collection CONDITION: Very nice vintage condition considering its age and the fact that these were originally inexpensive ballpark concession items rather than permanent collectibles. There is a crease along the lower edge, which is visible in the photographs. IT IS NOT TORN. The cardboard remains intact in this area. Please examine all photographs closely as they are part of the condition description. The colors and graphics remain particularly attractive, with the classic Yankees logo and Uncle Sam top hat displaying beautifully. Imagine buying popcorn at Yankee Stadium, finishing it, pulling out the bottom disc and then using this very style of megaphone to cheer for the Yankees. A terrific survivor from another era of baseball — and that classic Uncle Sam Top Hat & Bat Yankees logo makes this one especially fun to display!
