The idea for the Advertising Club of Greater Boston’s first charity auction originated 25 years ago with former agency executive Courtney Crandall.
“No one was doing charity auctions in those days,” said Crandall, who prior to his retirement in 1989 had been chairman of Cabot Communications, a shop eventually absorbed by Arnold.
