I went to Indiana University, Bloomington, in 1967. The dorm cafeteria was not open on Sunday evenings and we had to fend for ourselves. That's when I discovered an Italian pizza and sandwich shop across the street that had Stromboli sandwiches. That shop is long gone. I have been looking for a similar sandwich in Italian restaurants ever since then and I finally had to admit the search was in vain because what I remember was unique and not authentic Italian. Here is my version based on others I have tried, not close to the one I searched for, but I still think its very good.
