That is correct. Whilst it is rare (as are all pre-1920 World Series programs), significantly more original copies are around than of the White Sox version.

In part, this is likely to be due to the quality of the Cincinnati publication which was very high and, no doubt, led to more of the copies being retained. In fact, from recollection, it was headlined as a 1869 - 1919 Golden Jubilee souvenir. This compared to the White Sox version which, again from recollection, was more akin to a conventional scorecard.
