Has had myself and a friend at work guessing for 2 days, I'm sure someone in here will know for sure.

That certainly looks like the Yankee Stadium facade

Definitely. Now take a look at his cards in 1962, and 1968. Seems that was a popular photo spot for him.

With Topps right up until 1979, for the most part all AL players photos were taken at Yankee Stadium.

I wondered about that once I noticed this. Any reason why they did them all in New York? And how did they schedule the photo shoots?

Before games, when they were in town to face the Yankees. Topps is a NY based company so it was fairly easy to arrange for photoshoots there.
