A very nice example of the Adam and Eve inn sign on a board hanging outside this pub in the Bordesley area of Birmingham. Notice the serpent entwined around the tree between Adam and Eve. This sign was quite common in the late 18th and 19th centuries but few pubs bearing the sign seem to have survived. The illustration refers, of course, to the original sin but there is another reason for the Adam and Eve pub name - the couple were adopted on the arms of the Worshipful Company of Fruiterers whose motto is Arbor Vitae Christus, Fructus Per Fidem Gustamus.

Note: inn sign images are cropped for display - download often features full board with mount, edging and, in some case, the hanging bracket etc.
