Yes, many of the images on the site which depict watermarks will also show the accompanying map content in reverse as we try to photograph each watermark in its proper orientation. A link to the full, non-reversed map can be found by following the ATLAS hyperlink on the page which allows you to zoom in and out of the watermark.
For those who are interested in the history of these maps, a large portion of the pre-1800 content within the antiquarian map collection have watermarks which appear when the map is held up to a light. By comparing the photographs of these watermarks found on the HMW site to those which appear in books containing lookup tables with drawings of known watermarks such as "MONUMENTA CHARTAE PAPYRACEAE - WATERMARKS" or an online visual database such as the Piccard collection http://www.piccard-online.de/struktur.php?anzeigeKlassi=&klassi=&sprache=en researchers can identify the person or firm that made the paper that the map was printed on. Ultimately, knowing who made the paper and when, allows a more accurate dating and understanding the map itself.
