Say your y variable is "yvar", and the recession years are 1920, 1930
etc. The following is one way to do what you ask:
--------------------------CODE BEGIN----------------------
gen float maxy = max(yvar)
gen recession=.
replace recession==1 if inlist(year,1920,1930,....)
twoway (scatter yvar year) ///
(bar maxy year if recession==1,color(ltkhaki))
--------------------------CODE END----------------------
