Mar 15, 2021 at 20:56 comment added Sam Hopkins So together with @user61318's observation, Ira's formula follows from Stanley's Hook Content Formula. By the way for discussion of Littlewood's identity, in fact "bounded" versions of it, see arxiv.org/abs/1506.02755.
Mar 15, 2021 at 20:49 comment added user35313 The generating function mentioned by Ira Gessel is the specialization of an identity of Littlewood: on one side is the sum of all Schur polynomials in a finite fixed set of variables and on the other side $\prod_{1\leq i\leq n}(1-x_i)^{-1}\prod_{1\leq i<j\leq n}(1-x_ix_j)^{-1}$. So $f_n(t)$ is counting semistandard tableau according to their evaluations (the other meaning of content).
Mar 15, 2021 at 20:27 comment added Ira Gessel It seems that $$\sum_{n=0}^\infty f_n(t) x^n = \frac{1}{(1-x)^t (1-x^2)^{\binom{k}{2}}}.$$
