This is the classic recipe from Woman's Day 1954.
Preheat oven to 275 degrees. Grease 2 loaf pans; cut brown paper to fit bottoms; regrease.
Sift flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl. On a cutting board, cut dates and cherries into halves, and cut pineapple into similar-sized pieces. Drop the dried fruit into the flour mix and mix with a spoon. Beat 4 eggs until frothy, and gradually add the suar. Add this to the coated fruit and mix. Finally, add the pecans and mix until distributed and coated. Pack batter into loaf pans, being sure to fill the empty spaces. Bake for 1 and 1/2 hours. The tops should be dry; if in doubt, leave in longer. Remove from oven, place on a cake rack for 5 minutes. Turn over the loaf pan, remove it and the brown paper. Cool.
