Question About 1923 World Series Program

[IronHorse2130]

I'm still on the lookout for a 1923 Series Program from Game 1. I was going through the Heritage Auction Archives and saw this...

My question is - Game 1 was played at Yankee Stadium. I thought all programs from games played at Yankee Stadium would have Huggins on the left and McGraw on the right. Am I wrong about this or did Heritage make a mistake in listing this?

Here's a guess on my part: since Harry Stevens was the concessionaire for both ballparks, and published both versions of the program, it's possible that some copies of the "wrong" edition were sold at Yankee Stadium by mistake.

Does anyone know if the contents differ between the Polo Grounds and Yankee Stadium editions, other than the cover and (posslbly) the placement of the lineups?

Gary - I hadn't thought about that. Definitely sounds plausible. Good question about anything else being different.
