This year, KQED is celebrating 70 years of service! We hit the radio waves in 1954, but on this day in 1955, something special happened: we held our very first fundraising auction.

Before our Pledge Drives, KQED had auctions. These auctions were held to raise money for our station and were a combined effort of staff, volunteers, and celebrity auctioneers. If you're an old-school KQED viewer, you might even remember the auction's two funky mascots, Qued and Phred. Here's a peek into the strange things that were auctioned off! Today is the LAST DAY of May Pledge! Tap the link to donate and learn more about how you can support: https://lnkd.in/d9HKAwA8
