What I know about antique glass bottles wouldn't cover both sides of a matchbook. But here are some excellent links on the subject, so you too can learn the difference between a pontil and a blob:

Glass perfume stoppers, shot glasses, and bar dish. The perfume bottles were equally ornate, but all smashed. It must have been cheap perfume anyway since good perfume doesn't come in big bottles! The glass dippers on the bottom of each stopper were also broken off.
bottle
Another bottle from the Mohawk. This was more likely tossed in by a fisherman than actually sunk in the wreck, but still, you don't see these anymore.

The charts on this site have always been a pain to update. Starting with a spreadsheet of coordinates, converting DMS to decimal and then to pixel coordinates, then precisely placing markers in an image editor. Then generating a corresponding html image map for the links, and putting the whole thing in WordPress in such a way that WordPress doesn't simply eat it, as it is prone to do with a lot of things.
