We always were told the pineapple signified financial success.

But flying like an eagle sounds better.

I never heard the Eagle story (but I may have to add one of THOSE to the sign), but "we were always told" that the Pineapple represented Hospitality. Seen often in signs for restaurants and Inns.

I always heard the pineapple represented hospitality too, or welcome. Same thing really.

I had a very nice sign made a while back, as a gift for a friend's home purchase. I worked with Cedarsignsonline on Etsy.com. It looks like their prices have gone up, though...
