That's an interesting idea.  Probably not historical accurate, but 
interesting.

If you do these, use thicker slices of cheese than the thin sliced deli cuts 
and be sure to have enough oven space to melt and serve.  They cool down 
quick and I think they are better with at least a little warmth in them.  I 
used a medium swiss, but I think a sharper cheese would taste even better.
