My wifes maiden name is Hires and is related somehow to the Hires rootbeer family.  Did Hires ever have any embossed machines?  I hope to find a generic machine at some point and make it a Hires and surprise her with it.

Yes, a pretty cool looking Ideal slider.

I have seen a few Ideal 80's done in Hires.  Not embossed but still a cool looking machine.

There is this Hires door push that I was looking at (his reserve is 200, a bit high, but I bet he would come down if no one reaches it)
