Best guess is they were broken to keep competitors from reusing them which seemed to be a significant concern.   A FOOT HIGH BROKEN CHERO COLAS IN OUR DUMP AND RIGHT ON TOP OF THE GROUND TOO! _____________________________ LET NOT YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED !

The first is one with a large bubble in it. This may be the coolest one. Attachment (1) (in reply to blobbottlebob) Post #: 45

Here is one with a smaller bubble. Below the bubble is a flat ribbon of tiny seed bubbles that look like a thin (two-dimentional) sheet inside the stopper.

RE: 5 Matthews gravitational glass stoppers - 7/15/2010 12:17:45 AM    blobbottlebob Posts: 3351 Joined: 12/20/2005 From: Wisconsin Status: offline This next shot shows a row of some of the neater (or more odd) stoppers. - At left, the stopper is mis-molded so that it looks dented (middle right side) - The next one is the one with the sheet-like thin layer of bubbles. - third from the left is the big bubbled one. - The middle one has a slightly different shape and a bubble as well. - The next is the only amethyst (SCA) out of all of them. - Second from the right also is mis-molded and looks dented (lower right). - At right is one with the rings up on the gasket end.
